Coulter Accuses Trump, Bannon of Losing Touch With Base: Do They Even Know ‘Why Trump Won?’

 

On Wednesday night, Ann Coulter took President Trump and Steve Bannon to task over their ongoing feud.

Coulter, who was a staunch supporter of Trump during the election, began by saying she wasn’t sure whether or not to believe the quote Bannon reportedly said, questioning the credibility of the Fire and Fury author Michael Wolff.

And when asked by Laura Ingraham if this feud will have any affect on the agenda, Coulter said she didn’t think so, but she still had reservations about the president himself along with Bannon following through with the agenda.

“It’s clear that the media has no idea why Trump won,” Coulter said. “I’m starting to wonder if Trump and Bannon have any idea why Trump won.”

The conservative author insisted that “immigration, immigration, immigration” as well as “trade,” and “no more wars” are what Trump ran on and what got him elected. She also dinged Trump for not backing Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL) in the Senate primary, who she noted aligns with the president on immigration.

“That mistake was Donald Trump’s. That’s why I say, ‘I wonder if Donald Trump knows why he was elected,'” Coulter continued. “Why would he endorse Luther Strange, who was a disaster on immigration, when Mo Brooks was running. At least, in Bannon’s defense, he was still in the White House and couldn’t endorse anyone during the original primary.”

She went on to call this fiery feud between Trump and Bannon “utterly irrelevant.”
