Inauguration Day wouldn’t be complete without a meme or two to mark the occasion.
The creation of memes on the day when past presidents and lawmakers watch as a new president takes the oath of office has become somewhat of a hallmark in recent years.
Who can forget, for example, former President George W. Bush’s trials with a rain poncho during former President Trump’s inauguration?
Wednesday offered several viable contenders for the most celebrated meme of the day.
There’s several dedicated to former First Lady Michelle Obama’s stunning burgundy Sergio Hudson ensemble, and the change in expression on her face from the last time she attended a presidential inauguration.
And Lady Gaga, who sang the national anthem, had fans comparing her outfit with that of the character Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games.
No doubt, Jennifer Lopez, who also performed during the inaugural ceremony, and her fiancé Alex Rodriguez’ elaborate U.S. Capitol photo shoot will lead to some promising memes as well.
But it was Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., a former presidential contender himself, whose expression and cozy coat stole the show.
