Pardon my ignorance, but is all this “Clown-something” reference going about because of him?
There really have been scary clown sightings.
"The frenzy was born in South Carolina in late August after unsubstantiated reports surfaced that clowns were spotted trying to lure children into the woods. The craze has since ignited a national phenomenon, with scary clown sightings reported in more than two dozen states from Alabama to Wisconsin. While many were hoaxes, a handful of the incidents resulted in arrests: in Alabama, at least seven people face felony charges of making a terrorist threat connected to clown-related activity, Rainbow City Police Chief Jonathon Horton told the Times-Picayune."
