He’s exactly right.
Followers of Trump follow because of his personality. He says the things they want to hear. His record is what’s best for Trump. People assume they will be in that group that benefits.

Obama followers liked him because of his personality too. They, too, couldn’t see the truth behind the mirrors.

Coulter also has a long history of picking the RINO candidates. She was a big Christie fan. Then Romney. Now Trump.
There is a pattern.

Palin also has a history. She continues to support McCain despite his record. So she is not exactly the standard for principled beliefs.

Maybe Trump is doing so well, because everybody else running just plain sucks. It might just be that simple.

It would be unwise to think many people, especially those who consider themselves conservative, follow Trump because of his personality. I would also point out that Trump is a businessman: You may not like it that His record is what's best for Trump, but that's what business people do; people go into business to "profit"; and in the process of making themselves successful, good ones, like Trump, help, inspire, and employ those who wish to be successful as well. (To some of us, his books are very inspiring!)

I have said before: Frankly, I like both Trump and Cruz, and I'm fine with either one. Their both human beings with foibles and idiosyncrasies. But I tend I look at the innate goodness that both of them have, the good deeds that they have done thus far, and their strengths. Cruz is a champion of Conservative values, bar none; and Trump is the epitome of good old-fashioned, entrepreneurial, no nonsense (most of the time), American "can do" spirit, bar none. To me, they would make an incredible team, complimenting each others strengths and weaknesses.

Beck is your friend and asset, and Palin is evil?

That pattern which you do not seem to recognize is immigration/amnesty and Coulter saw each of these as the best chance to stop it. She repented over Christy but still perceives Romney as a staunch anti-Amnesty republican.

Palin also has a history. She continues to support McCain despite his record. So she is not exactly the standard for principled beliefs.

You do not know that Palin still supports McCain and neither do I. I have hopes that she will abandon him this time as he and his campaign staff along with the entire GOPe and numerous freepers, surely abandoned her.
