The former drummer of Beto O’Rourke’s old band is not happy the former Texas congressman endorsed Joe Biden for president.

Cedric Bixler-Zavala, the lead singer of The Mars Volta, played with O’Rourke in another band called Foss.

In an Instagram post after O’Rourke announced his support for the former vice president on Monday, Bixler-Zavala posted a photo of Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., with a caption that reads: “Team Bernie all the f—— way!!”

BETTING ODDS GIVE BIDEN THE UPPER HAND OVER SANDERS TO WIN DEM NOMINATION

During a reply to a series of comments, Bixler-Zavala said “Me too” when one commenter wrote that “Beto really bummed me out bad by supporting Biden,” according to images captured by Vice.

When another commenter asked Bixler-Zavala whether he denounces O’Rourke’s endorsement, he replied with “Denounced in the comatorium.”

Another commenter says “Maybe you can have a word with Beto.”

“what, you think I can offer him something the dnc hasn’t,” Bixler-Zavala responds with a reference to the Democratic National Committee.

O’Rourke endorsed Biden for the Democratic nomination, joining former 2020 contenders Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., and former South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg.
