'Last week Sen. Claire McCaskill, a Missouri Democrat and an eager Hillary Clinton surrogate, opened a new front against men — it's difficult to categorize this as a front for women — by ridiculing half of her constituents (and half of America) on national television.
Sitting in what appeared to be an office for a segment on “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert,” she urged women to run for office and told men to “shut the hell up.”
She was bristly, unfunny and strident. What was meant to be a parody of public-service announcements was, in truth, her attempt to hit the sweet spot that Hillary Clinton and Democrats are chasing to win the presidency next year: the female and millennial vote.'
