Ann Coulter praises Trump for condemning 'alt-left': 'Today, we got our leader back!'
The Washington Examiner ^ | August 15, 2017 | Mandy Mayfield

Conservative author Ann Coulter praised Trump on Tuesday after he publicly denounced the "alt-left" for contributing to violence during a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Va. this weekend.

"We were Gideon's army without Gideon. Today, we got our leader back," Coulter tweeted following the president's remarks.

Trump blamed "both sides" for the violence in Charlottesville, Va. this past weekend, doubling down on his prior statements against the "alt-left."

"What about the alt-left that came charging at, as you say, at the alt-right? Do they have any assemblage of guilt?" Trump told reporters at Trump Tower. "What about the fact that they came charging with clubs in their hands swinging clubs? Do they have any problem? I think they do. That was a horrible, horrible day."

Coulter, an outspoken supporter of then-candidate Trump, left the "Trump Train" after the president made "zero" progress on the campaign promise of a border wall months after taking office.

It was a masterful press conference, as usual. If he weren’t busy running the country, I wish he could slap around the our fake, corrupt media every day.

“We were Gideon’s army without Gideon. Today, we got our leader back”


Yep, I felt the same way!

I hated President Trump capitulating to the rats on the left.

Ann is a valuable ally, and a formidable enemy.
She would never last as some Cabinet Member. Too volatile, uninhibited and undiplomatic.

Trump is ALWAYS at his best when he goes OFF script.

When he follows the "professional" herd..?

It's boring and stupid.

I loved the press conference but we haven’t been leaderless until today.

Ann Coulter is the one that’s been MIA. Welcome back Ann. It’s great to have you back supporting Trump. Are you here to stay or just in for a quick back handed compliment?

I agree - he should dump whoever advised him to put out that one sided statement yesterday.

Trump is best when he’s unleashed.

It’s great when, like he did today, he hits the press upside the head with a 2x4 and doesn’t simply answer their loaded questions.

The Lamestream Media again showed their lack of common courtesy by continuously interrupting President Trump, not answering his questions and asking the same question again after he thoroughly answered it minutes before.

Even with the full protections of the 2nd Amendment, they were like monkeys driving a Rolls Royce.

Our President was an EMP strike and the Lamestream was knocked incognito into a pile of quivering mush.

I was hoping he would be Trump!! And he was! Mooch might have been a loose cannon, but he was right when he said he wanted Trump to be Trump! Screw the “handlers”.

"Do they have any assemblage of guilt?"

The word is 'semblage,' Mandy, not 'assemblage.' Otherwise, good article.

Which Ann are you talking about? Coulter’s been the the on message since they laughed at her saying Trump would win.

Simply put, racism and violence are always wrong, no matter who does it.
