The Bernie Sanders Meme Has Made its Way to Hip-Hop And It’s Delightful

Bernie Sanders and his inauguration fit made waves on social media.

Joe Biden’s Inauguration had its own share of stars like Amanda Gorman, Nikolas Ajagu’s Dior Jordan 1s, and the stylists behind Michelle Obama’s look. Social media has been abuzz with memes since the beginning of the ceremony and on Thursday, Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders and his inauguration fit became the latest meme.

Modestly dressed in the same beige coat from the “I Am Once Again Asking” meme, a standard surgical mask, and a pair of mittens gifted two years ago by a Vermont schoolteacher, Bernie’s look and pose has since become viral, so much so that he’s even had to address it, recently telling Seth Meyers: “I was just sitting there, trying to keep warm, trying to pay attention to what’s going on.” Sanders has also launched an official sweater sale bearing his meme-ness, with 100% of the proceeds going to Meals on Wheels Vermont.
