This is rich. Believing that Republican frontrunner Donald Trump’s misogynistic rhetoric has created an opening, Ted Cruz is going after the women’s vote. So far, this appeal mostly seems to involve having his wife and mother “hit the trail to highlight a softer side.” Because—with a short pause to first shudder over the idea of Ted Cruz’s softer side—here’s a quick review of his views on just a few issues that may matter to women:

He opposes paycheck fairness
He opposes paid family leave
He opposed reauthorizing the Violence Against Women Act
He opposes raising the minimum wage
He opposes all reform to gun laws
He supports criminalizing abortion
He supports defunding (and prosecuting) Planned Parenthood
He supports abolishing the Department of Education

Yep. The ladies will love him.
