Midterms are coming up! And republicans have realized that they need to start expanding their base if they want to win, so now they're targeting women... in extremely reductive and sexist ways! like likening picking a candidate to picking a wedding dress. I've atached a link to a daily show segment on this topic with Kristin Schaal (who is consistently hilarious as the "senior women's corespondent"), and would like you to know that the commercials in this segment are in fact real, and not a cruel joke.
