politics

Warning: If you're sick and tired of reading or hearing about the Democratic primaries, this post ain't for you. Since Bernie Sanders destroyed the Nevada caucus, the media seems to be freaking out. People from both parties are freaking out. And while we're starting to feel a bit politically fatigued, we've still got the memes to bring some entertaining edge to this political nightmare. This mix of memes, while mostly devoted to Sanders (the Democratic front runner) should be able to satisfy any democrat with a taste for memes.

Just when we thought that election takes couldn't get any more cringey, Twitter user @rapscallison has raised the bar. Yesterday she nearly broke our timeline when she started a thread designating the remaining democratic candidates as Broadway musicals. While the cringe is kinda real, this will probably appeal to those of you who both follow politics and love musicals. And in our heart of hearts, we have to admit that OP's choices are pretty scary accurate. 

Last night's democratic debate in Nevada got pretty damn spicy to say the least. So much so that many are calling it the most entertaining debate of the election cycle so far. Pete spoke Spanish, Warren (and every other candidate, for that matter) came out swinging against Bloomberg, and many, many other things that warranted a monumental cringe fest. 

So please enjoy the following roast-y memes from the night and you can watch a more in-depth recap of it here!

Every damn day something about the world comes to light that reminds us what a terribly dystopian situation we're in. Tweets are constantly being posted that deal with everything from healthcare woes to the pitfalls of late-stage capitalism. It's difficult to keep our chins up when everything seems so damn bleak, but it's better to be informed than to live in a state of not-so-blissful ignorance. On the off chance that you want more of these upsetting tweets, you can find them over at r/BoringDystopia.  

You're probably already aware that Michael Bloomberg, cringey billionaire extraordinaire and 2020 presidential candidate, has been reaching out to various big-name meme accounts on Instagram asking them to post content that makes him look a little more...hip to the kids, shall we say? 

But apparently he's doing something right with his presidential campaign, as he's been soaring in the polls and we're seeing ads for him practically everywhere.

Normally we don't like to get too political, but it's clear that Bloomberg was not hugged enough as a child.

While we would love for election season to be over right about now, we've gotta admit that the resulting political memes have been top-notch. The internet has been loving this particular dank meme, which shows Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi ripping up Donald Trump's State of the Union speech.

President Donald Trump was photographed on Friday returning to the White House from a trip to North Carolina and let's just say...he's looking a bit like a mandarin orange. People have been meme-ing and roasting the photo, which shows a very defined tan line of the orange variety on his face. Trump of course called the photo "fake news," and while we have to partially agree that the original was likely altered a bit, it's still amusing to see the reactions nonetheless!

What started as Bernie Sanders writing an innocent thank you note to his field staff on a white board turned into memers filling it in with hotter takes and less savory messages. Seriously, people should know better at this point than to post images on the internet of people with white boards. It's just asking for bad news.

Last night the 2020 Iowa Democratic Caucus stirred up quite the controversy when it was announced that the results would be delayed due to "inconsistencies" in a new app meant to speed up the reporting results of the caucus. Ironic, to say the least. 

But hang tight, because they're set to be released at 5 pm Eastern Time.

Ahead of the results being released, Pete Buttigieg gave what appeared to be a victory speech last night to the confusion of many. The bizarre move has lead many to believe that the system may have been rigged in Mayor Pete's favor.

As always, we have to give the disclaimer that we're not picking sides; we're merely reporting on what the internet has been saying, so scroll down to see some of our favorite reaction memes and tweets while we all wait impatiently for the results.

We've been seeing these Bernie Sanders memes practically everywhere on the internet lately, and they don't appear to be stopping any time soon! Here's our last gallery in case you missed 'em. 

We sincerely hope you're not sick of political memes yet, because we've still got far to go before the 2020 presidential elections, so buckle up!

Poor Mayor Pete just can't seem to catch a break on the internet. The presidential candidate from South Bend, Indiana tweeted a photo of himself walking down a hallway on Saturday with the caption, "On my way back to Iowa. It's phase 4. Let's do this." The tweet has been catching a fair amount of flack for appearing to be staged. 

Here are some of Twitter's most amusing reaction memes and tweets!

It's election season in America, and you know what that means! Instead of canvassing or donating for your preferred candidate, why not make memes about them instead? All jokes aside, we're loving this Bernie Sanders meme right now, which makes fun of those times when you're feeling fiscally challenged. Click here for a roundup of socialist memes!

Have you ever felt enraged by how expensive everything is? Ever had the urge to steal a billionaire's hard-earned money and then send him to the gulag? Well then these memes are for you! Send them over to your capitalist-scum friends and watch as they slowly start to become influenced to share half of everything they own with you! They might even begin to consider voting for....shudder....Bernie Sanders.

It's been a while since we covered an object labeling meme, and though this one isn't new, it's consistently popping up on our timelines - for good reason. It's a solid, simple, and versatile format, that has the ability to riff on real people and things that hold us up, or stuff that's a little more ridiculous, ironic, and self-deprecating. The fact that the whole meme is built on a corny illustration makes it all the more enjoyable. It's way more successful as a dank meme than its original purpose as a dramatic political statement. 

If you're looking for fresh memes from the dark and dank corners of Reddit, you've come to the right place. The r/dankmemes subreddit is a place where you can find extremely spicy memes jumbled with exceedingly dumb and topical memes about everything from United States politics to normie gamer memes. We've put this gallery together to spare you from the bad memes
