senator Bernie Sanders is as humble as ever.
Though arguably stealing the limelight in his gloves and trustworthy coat when the president was inaugurated in 2021, the Vermont native is not letting his renewed internet fame go into his head – not even a bit!
In an appearance on Late Night With Seth Meyers, the politician commented on the dozen of memes his appearance created and simply said, “Yes, I saw them.”
“They” are the genuinely ingenious works of art that those on the Internet created within hours of the President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris‘swear in.
One such photo shows the cozy Senator sitting on the couch with three of the four original Sex and the City stars, a subtle hint of the ongoing drama around the area Kim Cattrall and the other women.
But Bernie didn’t pay attention to the zeitgeist character of the memes, instead telling Seth that his favorite part about the internet frenzy is the interest he shows in the mitten maker. He noticed that Jen Ellis, a Vermont school teacher and part-time seamstress, is absolutely “overwhelmed” by the onslaught of potential customers.
