He's the perfect pick. Grown in a lab just for this moment:

White, handsome, accomplished astronaut, unknown politics, and he defuses the Trump assassination attempt narrative.

It's the third time I've seen something about Kelly on social media in the last day. Which is weird, since I didn't know he existed until today.

i dont really know how these names float up but i do remember mark kelly and the gabby giffords assassination attempt. I would guess reddit likes him because hes an astronaut and because of the assassination attempt.

idk about handsome though my man looks like dr phil

I knew him as one of the Astronaut twins and had no idea he was a politician. Him and his brother were the ones chosen for the Twins Study which was kinda neat. Scott stayed in space for a year and they had them on the same diet and exercise routine to see what the effects of long term exposure to zero G would be.

Yeah, he actually did something unlike most empty suits they put forward. Also worked closely with "enemy states" being on the ISS and all
