If you haven't been paying attention, President Donald Trump on Tuesday fired FBI Director James Comey.
As Political Twitter blew up with hot takes over the news, Meme Twitter soon began to imagine who could take over for Comey as head of the FBI. Many people arrived on one, totally obvious conclusion.
BREAKING: Burt Macklin expected to be named new director of the FBI. #TrumpRussia
They said it should be Burt Macklin, the FBI agent alter ego of Andy Dwyer (Chris Pratt) on Parks and Recreation.
Maybe America is really ready for the hero we deserve to lead the FBI. Burt Macklin. .@prattprattpratt
