Bernie Sanders, king of the liberal internet’s heart, rolled up to Donald Trump’s inauguration wearing what can only be described as an incredibly practical geography teacher jacket.
The senator arrived with John McCain, who was dressed in a suitably formal long overcoat.
Bernie on the other hand, was dressed for the weather. The forecast for Washington is rain, and most of the inauguration takes place outside.
It just looks so warm. It has a hood.
We bet it has loads of pockets for snacks and tissues, and presumably his really old flip phone.
With all eyes on the inauguration, Twitter users noticed his odd choice.
Bernie Sanders in a GREEN coat! Dressed like he is going to a middle school soccer game. #TrumpInauguration #berniesanders

Whatever your opinion on the wannabe Democrat nominee, he was certainly being true to himself with the on-brand look.
Everybody is dressed all fancy and Bernie Sanders shows up wearing a regular ass winter coat and sweater from 1997 ?? #TrumpInauguration

Respect to Bernie Sanders for walking the talk by wearing a coat probably bought from Walmart to #InaugurationDay

What I like about Bernie Sanders is that he has one coat.

The inauguration is sure to be an uncomfortable watch for many politicians, with Hillary Clinton also in attendance.Sanders is a vocal critic of the 45th president, and earlier this month printed one of Trump’s infamous tweets on a giant board and took it to the senate.
