    Doyle Lonnegan

    The ruthless Irish-American gangster and card cheat, played by Robert Shaw, ripped off by Newman and Redford in The Sting:

    I think my Mrs. Ted Cruz answer is responsive (they're maybe the two most-loathed men in the Senate, and that's saying a lot), so I'm gonna have to deny you a DQ for that. Remember you can rephrase up to three times.

    Dunno, and not Cory Booker (much to my regret) or Alexandria Ocasio Cortez (sp?).
