Ann Coulter Continues Anti-Trump Crusade: He’s a ‘Shallow, Lazy Ignoramus’

 

The world got to enjoy more of Ann Coulter’s post-election depression on Tuesday night, as the far-right troll explained she was “heartbroken” over Donald Trump’s presidency, since he is apparently not living up to the In Trump We Trust author’s expectations.

During a discussion with political blogger Mickey Kaus at Columbia University, Coulter discussed her shift from hardline, MAGA-hat wearing Trump supporter, to now being one of the president’s fiercest conservative critics, per a report from The Daily Beast‘s Lloyd Grove.

“I knew he was a shallow, lazy ignoramus, and I didn’t care,” said Coulter — explaining her justification for supporting Trump.

She continued by lamenting the current state of the GOP, which “breaks my heart.” Coulter then admitted Republicans have a good chance of losing both the House and the Senate in this year’s midterm election.

“He’s not giving us what he promised at every single campaign stop,” she noted.

Hollywood right-winger Rob Long, who acted as the discussions moderator, asked Kaus if Coulter should “feel like a total idiot right now” for writing In Trump We Trust — considering her current ire for the president.

Still, Coulter defended her vote for Trump by pointing to his opposition:

“We had 16 lunatics being chased by men with nets running for president—and Trump. So of course I had to be pedal-to-the-metal for Donald Trump. I regret nothing. I’d do the exact same thing. I’d write the exact same book, with the exact same title. I went into this completely clear-eyed.”

The Muslim-hating, domestic terrorist advocating pundit was then heckled as “a racist” by someone in the crowd just after joking about a hypothetical immigrant named “Juanita” whose only purpose in America is to clean up “bathtubs” for “the rich.”
