CNN anchor Jake Tapper usually plays things pretty straight, and today on “The Lead” he’s promising the results of a new poll of Iowa Republicans. He’s also having some fun with animal emoji while waiting for 4 p.m. to roll around, and he has followers guessing.

We’re pretty sure there are 16 critters lined up, and most are horses.
@jaketapper I'll bite. What's with the poodle and rooster?

@jaketapper wow much poodle shaming
— Jaen the Niner (@EverDilettante) August 12, 2015
@jaketapper I'm assuming Ron Paul is the Poodle. Hopefully, Trump is the chicken and he's last.

@jaketapper Is Donald Trump the camel because he's thirsty for attention?

@jaketapper best emoji use ever.

@jaketapper obviously camel is Rubio, & poodle is Paul. Who do you think is the Chicken?? ?

Hmm … Marco Rubio did drink out of that water bottle during his response to the 2013 State of the Union address. (“Career ender?” asked CNN, later claiming the graphic was a joke.)

@jaketapper it's wonderful when older start using emojis, like the kids

It is wonderful, and who’s older than Hillary Clinton?
How does your student loan debt make you feel?
