Pot, kettle: Trump attacks 'Wacky Nut Job' Ann Coulter over border wall criticism

Trump attacks 'Wacky Nut Job' Ann Coulter over border wall criticism
Associated Press in Washington
Sat 9 Mar 2019 23.08 GMT
Donald Trump will be making a significant request for border wall funds and seeking money to stand up his “Space Force” as a new branch of the military in the White House budget being released next week, an administration official said on Saturday.
As the official did so, the president was on Twitter calling the hard-right commentator Ann Coulter a “Wacky Nut Job” for questioning his success on the wall.
Coulter, previously a supporter of the president and the author of a book entitled In Trump We Trust, has turned on him over his failure to secure funding for the wall by conventional means.
Late on Saturday, after a day’s golf in Florida, the president tweeted that “Wacky Nut Job Ann Coulter … still hasn’t figured out that, despite all odds and an entire Democrat Party of Far Left Radicals against me (not to mention certain Republicans who are sadly unwilling to fight), I am winning on the Border.
“Major sections of Wall are being built and renovated, with MUCH MORE to follow shortly. Tens of thousands of illegals are being apprehended (captured) at the Border and NOT allowed into our Country. With another President, millions would be pouring in. I am stopping an invasion as the Wall gets built.”

Although the thought of the Coulter creature suddenly becoming enlightened, shaving her head, and joining a Buddhist nunnery that practices a code of modesty and complete silence is personally entertaining, if unlikely.
