Hot Or Not: GOP Edition

A definitive ranking of GOP male leadership.

Reference

This post does not reflect my personal political views.

The Republican National Convention was last week and Donald Trump officially accepted his candidacy for President as the Republican nominee. I thought it would be a good idea to take a closer look at the GOP and ask ourselves the important question: are they hot or not?

1. Paul Ryan, Speaker of the House: HOT

Believe it or not, he is not a former GQ Model!! Shocking, I know. He looks great with/without the facial hair. If politics doesn't work out, I'm not worried about his next career move. I'm certain Ralph Lauren is more than ready to welcome him. He was also elected to the U.S. House of Representatives at just 28 years old...

2. Chris Christie, Governor of New Jersey: NOT

Honestly, what is he even talking about? He just makes bad jokes about Hillary that he probably (definitely) didn't write himself. I think this must be a defense mechanism for getting passed over for Trump's VP pick. Always almost out of breath.

3. Marco Rubio, U.S. Senator, FL: HOT

His winning smile just reminds me of a golden retriever. I feel like he was the underdog in a schoolyard fight with a bully who stole his lunch money but through determination and the help of his group of misfit best friends, he overcame adversity and stood up to the school bully and got his lunch money back. A true success story.

4. Ted Cruz, U.S. Senator, TX/Suspected Zodiac Killer: NOT


His stare is just so blank I can't get over it. Are there any thoughts running through his head at this point??? Is it just an endless void?? This is probably the look he gave people growing up when they called him "Teddy." Laughing on the outside, dying on the inside.

5. Kevin McCarthy, House Majority Leader: HOT

He looks so friendly! Just like a nice guy. Probably has owned a dog and counts that dog as one of his best friends. Holds the door for you and answers the phone politely, even if it's a telemarketer.

6. Mitch McConnell, Senate Majority Leader: NOT

He looks like a creepy turtle. Poor guy. The type to dramatically clutch the seat each time you accelerate while driving so as to passive-aggressively express his opinion that you didn't ask for.

7. Mitt Romney, Former Governor of Massachusetts, 2012 Party Nominee: HOT

He has that older/distinguished looking gentleman thing going on. Like Mr. Sheffield on The Nanny. Give him a TV show. A political sitcom. One with a laugh track.

8. Rand Paul, U.S. Senator, KY: NOT

It's the hair. Why did nobody tell him he looks like a mad scientist? Where are his real friends? Has definitely owned snakes in his lifetime. Thinks the height of comedy is to turn his ball cap to the side and flash a peace sign.

9. Rick Perry, Former Governor of Texas: HOT

He looks like he means business. Can explain to you the 2008 housing bubble without having to google it first. I trust him. He also looks like the dad from the 2005 movie Sky High.

10. Newt Gingrich, Former Speaker of the House: NOT

His face is squished. Probably Marco Rubio's schoolyard bully and/or the principal that did not reprimand Rubio's bully for stealing Rubio's lunch money, and so Rubio had to take matters into his own hands.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
