Here are your Bernie Sanders music memes
Bernie Sanders attended Joe Biden and Kamala Harris' inauguration on Wednesday in the most Bernie Sanders way possible, staying warm in a big utilitarian winter coat he's been seen in before, keeping his hands toasty in bulky hand-knitted mittens made from recyclable material, and carrying a stack of mail. A picture of him sitting, well isolated, cross-armed and cross-legged on a metal folding chair became an instant meme that hasn't run out of gas yet, including lots of music ones.
