Bernie Sanders Announces Nationwide Protest; Giant Trump Tweet Got Meme'd

Democrats Will Organize Nationwide Pre-Inauguration Rallies

Sen. Bernie Sanders and his allies will be leading a nationwide pre-inauguration protest one week before the newly-elected president Donald Trump takes his seat. This will be the first time in the history where Democrats take lead in organizing rallies across the country, as what Sanders said. This action will be taken to show opposition to the Republican budget.

I was the first & only potential GOP candidate to state there will be no cuts to Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid. Huckabee copied me.

In an interview with MSNBS, Sanders stated that the Republican budget "calls for throwing 30 million people off of healthcare, taking their insurance away, privatizing Medicare, making massive cuts in Medicaid, and at the same time giving tax breaks to the wealthy," which he greatly opposed. Sanders, as an advocate of universal healthcare, shaded the new presidency of Trump for not fulfilling his promises during the campaign. He said Donal Trump is a liar if he pursued to cut Medicaid, Madicare, or Social Security under his term.

Meanwhile, people in the internet went crazy over the giant poster Bernie Sanders has prepared and displayed on the Senate floor. This was a part of his attempt to justify his stand that president-elect Donald Trump should not touch the budget for Medicaid, Madicare, or Social Security, as what he has promised on his campaign trail. However, the seriousness of the issue didn't stop the people from making memes.
