In light of Sen. Bernie Sanders’ meeting with President Obama, CNN anchor John Berman warned that the White House is “feeling the bern like it hasn’t since the British set it on fire in 1814.”

Thursday, on “At This Hour with Berman and Bolduan,” Berman started the show saying, “Breaking news, the White House today feeling the bern like it hasn’t since the British set it on fire in 1814.”

Co-host Kate Boulduan asked, “Too soon?”

“Probably,” Berman replied.

On August 24, 1814, during the War of 1812, the British set the White House on fire.

Sanders met with Obama in the White House on Thursday to discuss the state of the race and party unity since Hillary Clinton has become the presumptive Democratic nominee.

Obama then immediately endorsed Hillary Clinton.
