U.S. — As mid-term election campaigns ramp up across the country, insiders revealed that the Republican Party was hard at work searching insane asylums for its next popular female politician.
Though the method may seem to be outlandish to those unfamiliar with the party's recent history, sources said that it had become the GOP's most tried and true process for recruiting new female candidates.
"We've gotten some of our best ladies from the loony bin," said one Republican official. "They might be bat-poop crazy, but they get a lot of attention and become really popular. We've tried to go the more traditional route of finding women with the best and brightest conservative minds and leadership skills, but that just hasn't worked out nearly as well as rounding up really loud, crazy broads who say outlandish things in public."
One prospective female Republican candidate was excited about the potential opportunity. "Blaaaagh! The radical Left won't get away with their tricks!" she shouted. "We've seen what happens when you put socialist Democrats in charge of things. And we all know who's really in charge of things, right? Deep State! Pizza parlors! Jewish space lasers! We demand to know the truth! REEEEEEEE!"
The woman was then dragged away by men in lab coats for her official interview with Republican Party leaders. Insiders said officials believed that she may be the most promising new female candidate in years. "She's got everything we look for in a Republican candidate," one source said.
At publishing time, the woman had been put back into her straitjacket until the her congressional campaign kick-off.
