Conservative provocateur Ann Coulter railed against President Donald Trump’s potential departure from his campaign promise to build a border wall along the entire U.S.-Mexico border and make Mexico pay for it.
It was hardly the first time Coulter criticized the President.
Trump has long since stopped insisting that Mexico would pay for the wall. But on Thursday, he said the wall itself would “come later” and that, for now, existing fencing would be refurbished.
Predictably, Coulter lashed out at the idea, and at a potential deal protecting DACA recipients in exchange for beefed up border security measures. Trump ended the DACA program on Sept. 5.
Not to keep score or anything, but the American Revolution was fought and won over vastly lesser perfidy.

At this point, who DOESN'T want Trump impeached? https://t.co/g1mMhmm8ng

If we're not getting a wall, I'd prefer President Pence. https://t.co/g1mMhmm8ng

She also retweeted similar criticisms from other Twitter users:
@RealDonaldTrump If AP is correct, Trump base is blown up, destroyed, irreparable, and disillusioned beyond repair. No promise is credible. https://t.co/uJjxk6uX5g

That's not rebuilding, that's retouching. We want a wall that stretches from the Pacific to the Gulf of Mexico. https://t.co/ztdgbmeh5i

A year ago, Coulter attacked Trump for nearly the exact same reason: He said on the campaign trail that he would be open to allowing some undocumented immigrants to stay in the country legally, a day before Coulter published “In Trump We Trust,” which praised the then-candidate for his hardline immigration platform. (She secretly helped write the platform.)
Trump ended up siding with Coulter: He has pursued the detention and deportation of undocumented people with extreme fervor, and any hints of legally accommodating undocumented people have so far not resulted in actual policy policy changes.
Like anyone cares what Ann Coulter has to say.
Anything that pisses off Coulter, Hannity and Steve King is fine by me. She really is desperate for attention, isn’t she? Your 15 minutes are almost up, Ms. Coulter. Go away.
“Not to keep score or anything” she starts… amps up to “Put a Fork in him”… Escalating to gale force with impeachment talk and pres. pence.
Tropical Storm Ann currently at Cat(ty) 2. How strong of a storm will grow from her escalation?
Dear Ann, one puts a fork in something that is DONE, not DEAD. And BTW, how’s the secret service going to feel about you saying that?
With all of America’s heroes coming out against Trump,how can he last?
Can you imagine how confused his base must be?
