Jimmy Kimmel Live has a very good Mitt Romney impersonator, as you can see in this fake attack ad the Kimmel crew created for Wednesday's show. Kimmel introduced the ad by noting that the Republican establishment is lining up behind Ted Cruz to stop the nomination of Donald Trump, and "Mitt Romney, in particular, has his magic underwear in a bunch when it comes to Donald Trump." To aid Cruz, Kimmel said, "Mitt released this powerful ad that really details the differences between Trump and Cruz, in a very easy-to-follow way." The joke is pretty obvious right away, but it does, as Kimmel said, make its point in a very easy-to-follow way. You can watch below. Peter Weber
