Bernie Sanders made a drag brunch campaign stop in West Hollywood
Anything goes at drag brunch - but an appearance by Bernie Sanders was certainly not expected.
California's presidential primary is this Tuesday, June 7, and on Sunday, Sanders stopped by Hamburger Mary's of West Hollywood to watch some drag queens perform and eat brunch. He also hoped to earn a few votes.
Sanders stole the drag queens' spotlight by making a speech in the crowded restaurant.

Bernie and his wife Jane Sanders continued through town on Sunday by hitting up other local hotspots, including LA's Historic Downtown Farmer’s Market and the Santa Monica Pier, where they rode a carousel with grandkids Ella and Dylan.
Whether or not Sanders wins over California on Tuesday, it looks like he's having a blast on the campaign trail.
