WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)As the crisis at the top of their ticket deepened on Sunday, there were increasing calls from Republican officials to replace a man who hates women with a man who hates both women and gays.
We currently have a Presidential nominee who is consumed by his hatred of women, Harland Dorrinson, a longtime G.O.P. official, said. It is time for him to step aside in favor of a man who has demonstrated a more even-handed loathing of both women and gays.
The Republican official argued that a stellar performance in last weeks Vice-Presidential was another reason to elevate the man to the top of the ticket. For ninety minutes, he made no reference whatsoever to female genitalia, he said. That showed he has what it takes to be President.
Moreover, he said, the mans record as governor of Indiana demonstrated that he hated women in a more appropriate way than the current Republican standard bearer. The only female body part he ever focussed on was the uterus, the official said.

Trump is a narcissist and the center of his own universe, but he's as hapless as he is threatening. Pence is a genuine religio-conservative zealot of the Taliban variety. Given the means, Trump will shoot himself in the foot more often than not-- he makes Dubya look sober and considered-- while Pence will hide the knife inside his bible until he's ready to twist it as cruelly as he can. Trump is a clown who takes himself seriously. Pence is bitter, mean, and filled with hate.
