Clark Kent Lookalike At January 6th Hearing Sparks Thrist Tweets

Have y'all ever realized that politics can be kind of boring? That's why we're so lucky to have memes to spice current events up with wacky main characters. People who aren't on social media miss out on the fun side of politics facilitated by memes. While the events of January 6th were crazy and memeable in their own right, a new meme man has emerged from the hearings of the storming of the Capitol, and that meme's name is Clark Kent.

A Clark Kent lookalike who sat behind Matthew Pottinger, a witness to the January 6th attacks, has gone viral on Twitter. Many viewers of the 8th day of the hearings were caught up on how attractive this man was, distracting them from the court proceedings.

Some Twitter users joked about why Clark Kent, the character, might be at the January 6th hearings.

Others were merely baffled by the goofiness of the thirst tweets themselves. After all, this is one of those ridiculous types of discourse that could've only gone viral on Twitter.

The true identity of this man still remains a mystery. Luckily for us, that only adds to his attractive mystique.
