Why are they all so orange?

Maybe that's the problem. The self tanner causes brain damage. Or is it the opposite, brain damaged people are drawn to self tanner.

Vibrancy was turned up.

They all look like Bethesda NPCs

While I won't disagree that someone upped the saturation on the above photo slightly - and slightly is the key here: it easily could have been auto corrected to that level on a simple photo editor automatically. I wouldn't be comfortable with malice being the underlying reason for what appears to be an attempt to make the photo look less washed out - which your example appears to be.
The problem is a lot of these people are positively off of an actual human color. Spray / fake tan or years of sun exposure and subsequent damage. Take your pick. Either way: correcting color without intentionally distorting the spectrum to make them look 'normal' is not kind to most of the people in the original photo... and not drastically far off from what it appears to be.
Disclaimer: I'm not looking at this at the office where I have a display that has been properly calibrated - but I'm reasonably certain of my assessment.

Realistically he'd probably think they're all his grandchildren or something.

A high enough dose of UV would definitely kill the brain worms.
Yeeting them into the sun would be a proper posology.Also: Obligatory "so does a handgun" XKCD

It's radiation poisoning from being near their glowing turd of a leader. They're ghouls.

Look at the guy in the far right of the original photo vs the photo I put up. He has a fairly normal skintone in the photo I put in, and is positively oranged up in the OP photo. I think he is a good barometer of the change. This isn't to say RFK is a baseline normal looking person, but two things can be true- RFK looks weird and the colors were heightened.

Reagan was evil, but he subtly evil. He got off on getting his agenda across just with charm. He'd be flipping out about how overtly evil today's malefactors are operating
The bull in a china shop approach is only going to provoke backlash
Reagan would not approve

MTG's face always reminds me of one of those old school puffy catcher's mitts.

Sure. There are absolutely people in that photo who have a normal skin tone. If the saturation were being brutally jacked up to make RFK look orange then they too would be off color completely (most likely beet red.) The point I was getting at is this doesn't take much modification (even to fairly benign levels like my example shows) to land him firmly in the topic's question.
Yes - the observation is being made because it's funny; but if we're being honest - the pictures don't really need all that much assistance to make OPs point, though.

I'm glad I found out about her personal life after the show finished so it didn't ruin my enjoyment.

Seeing Cheryl Hines there makes the “episode is over and Larry David is screwed” music play in my head.
