Steve Kornacki, the MSNBC pundit who broke the internet in November with his khaki trousers, returned to TV screens for the Georgia Senate runoffs this week. Wearing a white button-down shirt, a thin black-and-white striped tie and those same peanut-coloured trousers – or “Kornacki khakis”, as Twitter named them – his appearance was met with a now familiar mix of arousal and comfort. “When you’re writing on that board that comforts me,” posted.
