George Kent’s bow tie wasn’t his only accessory at Wednesday’s impeachment proceedings that became an internet sensation.
The diplomat caused another stir on social media by replacing the standard single-use water bottle given to lawmakers and witnesses with an unconventional mode of hydration — a gigantic 48-ounce Nalgene bottle.
“Kent said f–k your baby water bottles. If @nbcsnl doesn’t have him drinking out of a water cooler on Sat, I’m done. #ImpeachmentHearings,” wrote one user.
Another late-night comedy show, “The Daily Show” hosted by Trevor Noah, beat “SNL” to the punch.
“George Kent *stays* hydrated,” they wrote, along with a doctored version of a viral photo of Kent chugging his water during Wednesday’s testimony.
Nalgene has also been quick to seize on their Silo bottle’s 15 minutes of fame.
They tweeted a photo of three Nalgene bottles that Kent used with the hashtag #NalgeneSilo — along with a link to their online store.
