Bernie Sanders has taken his new meme status as a compliment and turned it into iconic merchandise for a good cause.
The photo of the Vermont Senator, in a winter coat and mittens at the presidential inauguration of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris on Wednesday went viral and became an instant meme.
The photo has seen the 79-year-old senator becomes a fashion icon and the meme has been flipped into a sweatshirt.
As seen on the Bernie campaign store, the Chairman Sanders Crewneck is emblazoned with the now-ubiquitous photo of Sanders in mittens and a Burton jacket in a clever move of meme-based philanthropy.
