Bernie Sanders supporter's election bet comes 'back' to haunt him

It might have been the most painful bet he ever lost.

Zach Cobert of Rock Island, Iowa, supported Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders for president, but now he's getting a tattoo of President-elect Donald Trump on his lower back.

Why? Because as Cobert might tell you, a bet is a bet.

That's right. Cobert promised a friend that he would get an imprint of the billionaire businessman turned politician if he won the election.

"I'm thinking about my life, how it went wrong, now I'm getting a Trump stamp," Cobert told WQAD-TV.

But not only did Cobert stay true to his end of the deal, he also live-streamed part of the process using Facebook Live.

"The stupidest thing I've done for views," Cobert said of the video, which attracted thousands of eyeballs. (Content warning: strong language)

Cobert and his girlfriend, Jenni Gang, were at the tattoo parlor for hours, but the body art still isn't finished. Cobert was told to come back at a later time for the rest of the ink, WQAD-TV reported.

So what does Gang think about her boyfriend's misfortune?

"I'm not happy with it, no," she said. "I have to look at it forever."
