In an interview with the Washington Examiner, conservative commentator and author Ann Coulter shared her thoughts on the current political environment, including topics ranging from President Trump and the Republican National Committee to the Democratic presidential hopefuls.

​

Coulter began by slamming Trump for failing to fulfill his campaign promise of building a wall on the southern border.

​

“[Trump] deserves to lose. We don’t deserve a Democrat though,” Coulter said before adding that she has “repeatedly” told Trump that he does not need Congress to build the wall. When asked what she is most satisfied with about the Trump presidency, Coulter said “the tweeting is great.”

​

Coulter, a former Trump supporter, recently became disenchanted with the Trump administration. She blames this in part on a “saboteur in the administration” who she says has prevented hard-line immigration hawks such as Kris Kobach from serving in the administration.

 

Coulter remarked:

​

"Kris Kobach built a wall, over Memorial Day Weekend in El Paso, a part of the border, that the Army Corp of Civil Engineers had said, ‘Nope, can’t build a wall there. Nope, it’s impossible’ … In a weekend they did it. It was the same company that built the fence around Israel. Kris Kobach did it in a weekend. Gosh, wish he were working for the Trump administration."

She later took jabs at Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, for allowing the Republican National Committee to advise the Trump administration, sarcastically calling them “geniuses” and “brain trusts.” She also said the RNC has not learned the lessons of the 2016 election because it still panders to donors on immigration and believes Hispanic votes can be won by advocating for amnesty.

​

“[Jared and Ivanka] don’t know anything about politics,” Coulter said. "[The RNC] are the people that tried to prevent your father-in-law from becoming president.”
