BALTIMORE (WJZ) – Senator Bernie Sanders is a meme again.
The day he showed up for Joe Biden's inauguration, he was seen in a functional winter jacket and large, comfortable gloves. Some people commented on its comfortable appearance as opposed to the designer outfits of many celebrities and politicians who showed up for the socially distant ceremony.
The internet was completely obsessed with Bernie.
They started sharing photoshopped pictures of the Senator. He can be seen in places around the world, in movie scenes and other memes.

The original photo for the meme, captured by Getty photographer Brendan Smialowski, shows Sanders with his legs crossed and arms crossed on his lap. His expression is difficult to read because his face is mostly covered by a mask. He looks bored and cold. You could say he's the typical spectator at a children's sporting event.

Baltimore was quick to have fun and there are no limits to where Bernie can go in this city.

One was a COVID-19-related meme in which Sanders sat outside the Hampden Bar Frazier & # 39; s On the Avenue. It was created by local jewelry and art maker Juliet Ames.

Later on Wednesday, he defended his fashion choice against Gayle King of CBS This Morning.
"In Vermont we know about the cold and aren't that concerned about good fashion," he said. "We want to keep warm and I did that today."
