Donald Trump

Little did you know, the Donald has military (academy) background. Strikingly, his hair is... existent. What a stud.
Ted Cruz

Cruzin’ through Republican victories as a young adult, Ted celebrated Bush’s win as Texas governor in 1994 at Harvard Law. Also, doesn't this look like Ron Livingston from Office Space?
Marco Rubio
