It's like watching a convention of "The Stepford Wives"
casting call extras.

It's like looking into an alternate universe where "The Handmaid's Tale" is reality.

1950's TV stuck in a continuous loop in HD. I keep expecting Rod Serling to step in front of the scene and say, "Imagine if you will, a society where no social change has occurred in the last 50 years..."

(Just a couple of random thoughts as the TV sits in the corner on PBS with the sound off.)

3. The contrast to Democratic Party women is striking.
Compare amazing, accomplished, self made success story Michelle to spoiled little rich girl, heiress, air head, who bought her way into the picture, Cindy.
