Coulter Thinks Trump's Hit On Heidi Cruz Went Too Far: He's 'Mental'

Ann Coulter has been one of Donald Trump's biggest fans, but the conservative commentator said in an interview excerpt published on Monday that she cannot defend Trump's retweet of an unflattering photo of Sen. Ted Cruz's (R-TX) wife, Heidi Cruz.

During an podcast interview with Milo Yiannopoulos, another Trump supporter, Coulter said she found Trump's action upset her.

"I’m a little testy with our man right now," she said.

"You are? Daddy’s annoyed you?" Yiannopoulos asked in response, referring to Trump.

"Our candidate is mental. Do you realize our candidate is mental? It’s like constantly having to bail out your sixteen-year-old son from prison," Coulter replied. "OK, let’s move past last night’s tweet."

"This is the worst thing he’s done," she continued, adding that Trump's comments about Sen. John McCain's (R-AZ) status as a war hero were also hard to defend.

"Everything else I could probably defend. I could, I think, off the top of my head. Most of it — it was them overreacting," she said, referring to liberals. "But the McCain thing, that was — OK it was a dumb joke, it didn’t work. Oh, well. Didn’t kill him. But that tweet last night…"

Later in the interview, Coulter confirmed that she was referring to Trump's Heidi Cruz retweet when Yiannopoulos mentioned that Trump retweeted "a picture of Cruz’s wife and a picture of Melania."

"That’s exactly the tweet I’m talking about," Coulter said. "No, you can’t defend it. This is when we’re bailing our sixteen-year-old out of jail."

"Naah. It just hit a nerve because it revealed to Ann that, like Heidi, she is no longer young and cute. She's hit "the wall."

I thought of this as well...

"I believe Ann (for all her sterling qualities) bids fair to be in that group, not the least reason being her career success: women marry up in socioeconomic status, and generally want the man to be taller, stronger, and smarter than her as well. But the men who occupy those lofty heights, can pick any woman they want: they don't have to settle for aging brainiacs."

She lost her schizzle this past term, and she lost her shit when CPAC stopped bringing her in 2015. The things that made her attractive have stopped making her attractive. Now she's faghagging with Milo. Not much left on this downward slide.

That was an “over the board” attack????

I think it makes it look like he knows there is more coming. I do not get it. Cruz lies a lot. Why not lie here too?
