18 Bernie Sanders memes for every parent who needs a laugh today

Celebrities were out in full force on Joe Biden and Kamala Harris's inauguration day, but it was an unlikely star who really stole the show: Bernie Sanders. In true normcore Vermont dad style, the senator traded the standard dress code (fine suits, jewel-toned ties, wool overcoats) for a putty-hued Burton jacket and cozy hand-knit mittens, topping off the look with a manila envelope casually thrown under his arm (for a future errand?). He proceeded to pull his jacket lapels up over his ears and sit in the curmudgeonly pose that has since spawned a million LOLs.

We've gathered up the most hilarious memes for parents who need a laugh after another long week of virtual schooling, working from home and/or general pandemic anxiety. You're doing amazing!
