Pakistan’s General Elections have been an absolute roller-coaster ride. From the entire dilemma of the Sharifs going to jail, to Imran Khan finally winning the seat, it’s been crazy. But here’s what’s actually been the craziest: Aamir Liaquat, you know, our nation’s beloved aam khaayega aam guy just beat a seasoned politician, Dr. Farooq Sattar in Karachi.
Basically, Aamir Liaquat – PTI – was contesting against Dr. Farooq Sattar in NA-245. AND HE WON.
What do you get when you cross Aamir Liaquat, his victory and the internet? Well, a lot apparently. Basically, people have lost it and their coping mechanism is obviously venting on the internet. As a result, you have tweets and memes that basically summarize the entire situation.
Some people can’t help but wonder if Karachi is okay
Karachi seems to have elected, so far, a gorgeous model, Aamir fkn Liaquat, TLP (from a provincial) and voted out the MQM from several strongholds. Yeh shehar bhi forever not coming slow

Others still can’t understand how he’s managed to beat other candidates
Is there a constitutional way to give Amir Liaquat's seat to Yasmin Rashid?

However, others seem to find a lighter side to the matter
Imagine Amir Liaquat sitting in National Assembly and saying:”Speaker sahab! Aap aam khayeinge aam? Hain?”#PakistanElections2018

Bring on the endless drama!
Can we have a Rana Sanaullah vs Aamir Liaquat fight-to-the-death in the first parliament session? Trial by combat let aao, inka aur koi hal nahi

Then there’s this…

And a bit of a warning, perhaps?
I have two words for those people who in the space of less than 24 hours have started feeling cautiously optimistic about Imran Khan: Aamir Liaquat.
— Usman (@UsmanAhmad_iam) July 26, 2018
Oh, new banter.

At the end of the day, we all know deep down that this is probably how he reacted.

But whatever the case it, all everyone hopes is that we actually get to see some real change at the end of the day. What do you think about the scene, though? Let us know in the comments!
