Bernie Sanders at the Biden-Harris inauguration was a mood — and now countless memes

As a gazillion photos were snapped at the inauguration, one captured everyone's attention: Bernie Sanders looking cold and casual.

Trump is out, Biden is in.

Also, history was made when Kamala Harris took oath as the US vice president.

We watched Wednesday's inauguration for it all — history in the making, the star power of Lady Gaga and JLo, and the style statements in the form of oversized coats. What we didn't watch out for was Bernie Sanders being ... well ... Bernie.

In a sea of people fist-bumping and hugging, and wearing their best formals, the US senator kept it real with mittens bearing a white and brown pattern.

According to the Washington Post, he got the mittens from Jen Ellis, a second-grade teacher in Vermont. Ellis and a partner began making mittens years ago as a side hustle and one fine day, sent Bernie a pair of mittens. But that wasn't the end of it.

As a gazillion photos were snapped at the inauguration, one captured everyone's attention: Bernie Sanders looking cold and casual, sitting in the stands, and observing distancing (or so we assume).

In standing out from the crowd by sitting down, he was a mood we can all relate to. And within a few hours, his mood was translated into memes and of course, we shortlisted some for you.

The winner for sure

This is us

Bernie found himself in different situations

Just out for an errand

He means business

Oh, and he's friends with Deadpool

Bernie indeed a great man and an enlightened thinker. His economic theory of socialist democracy is the only way out of getting rid of corrupt side effects of capitalism.

Bernie is my favorite politician. He is a great man and there is not a dishonest bone in this guy. His mistake... he relied on young voters, but it is the older voters who'd come out to vote. He kept on repeating the word "socialist democrat", which really turned off older voters and they went for Biden.

Bernie is a millionaire and dresses like a middle income retired grandpa - definitely the most under dressed guy at the Inauguration.

Bernie is the most remarkable American leader in current times who feels pain for the people. Consistent, truthful and no compromise on his principles man. Too bad that Americans failed to elect him as the President

First Ron Paul and now Bernie Sanders. The two could have changed the entire political landscape but no, we are happy with the status-quo.
