The conservative pundit and Donald Trump super-fan Ann Coulter condemned the media in a Thursday column for “denouncing Trump, every minute of every day, while cooing at Hillary.”

Instead of focusing on Coulter’s favorite right-wing narratives – like Hillary Clinton secretly being in ill health and the campaign inviting the mother of “violent cop-hating criminal Mike Brown” to speak at the DNC – she wrote the media is focused on pushing their own “insane interpretation of every little thing Trump says or does.”

“No one, not even Joe McCarthy, has ever faced this level of obsessive hatred from our constitutionally protected guardians of liberty in the press. Anyone else would be chewed up and spit out after one minute of such relentless attacks,” Coulter wrote in the column headlined “GOP BLAMES VICTIM OF MEDIA RAPE.”

While she admitted Trump “has made some mistakes” during the campaign, Coulter said there’s no way for the GOP nominee to overcome “this level of media hostility.”

She also turned the blame on Trump’s fellow Republicans.

“Craven Republicans who blame Trump for the media’s lies may as well blame a rape victim for wearing a short skirt,” Coulter wrote. “Except with Trump, it’s the Muslim standard: They’re blaming a woman’s rape on being a woman.”
