Bernie Sanders responded to all the memes made of him at President Joe Biden's inauguration on "Late Night with Seth Meyers."
Sanders told Meyers he was just "trying to keep warm" after the image of him wrapped up at the event has been placed in innumerable different scenarios.

Sen. Bernie Sanders has reacted to the memes surrounding his attendance of President Joe Biden's inauguration, and has said that the Vermont schoolteacher who made his mittens has been "overwhelmed."
Sanders was appearing on NBC's "Late Night with Seth Meyers" when the chat show host couldn't help but bring up the subject of the grumpy Bernie Sanders memes that spawned from his appearance at the inauguration.
"I was just sitting there trying to keep warm, trying to pay attention to what was going on," Sanders said.
Meyers showed Sanders a couple of select memes, including one with the senator sat next to the "Sex and the City" cast and one with him sat next to Forrest Gump on his famous bench. Meyers joked that he didn't think Sanders would put up with Gump for all that long, and would probably walk away from him.
The memes have become so popular that somebody even went to the lengths of creating an entire website where users can place the grumpy Bernie Sanders photo anywhere in the world using Google Maps.
Sanders also spoke about his now-famous mittens, which were made out of old jumpers and which the internet has since fallen in love with.
Sanders said: "What was really nice, Seth, is that the woman who made the mittens lives in Essex Junction, Vermont, she is a schoolteacher and a very, very nice person and she has been somewhat overwhelmed by the kind of attention that is being shown to her mittens."
Another meme spawning from Sanders on inauguration day came from a photo of Sanders holding a manila envelope. A Twitter user joked that the envelope contained the script for "Knives Out 2," tweeting writer and director Rian Johnson, who didn't miss the chance to get in on the fun.
Johnson tweeted: "Gave it to him like 3 weeks ago and still waiting on notes wtf."
However, the contents of the folder will seemingly forever remain a mystery. Meyers asked the senator what was in the envelope, and Sanders said: "I'd love to tell you, Seth. Top secret."
