Ann Coulter: Donald Trump can win White House as Republican or third-party candidate
The Washington Times ^ | July 24, 2015 | Seth McLaughlin

Ann Coulter believes that Donald Trump can win the White House by continuing to tap into the electorate’s anger over the nation’s broken immigration system.

Speaking at a collegiate forum hosted by the Eagle Forum, Ms. Counter said Friday that Mr. Trump should not be underestimated.

“I love Trump. I love him, and I think he can win,” Ms. Coulter said. “I think he can win the nomination and I think he can win as a third party.”

The conservative commentator is one of the most vocal critics of the immigration system. She recently released a book, called “Adios America: The Left’s Plan to Turn Our Country into a Third World Hellhole,” in which she attacks both parties for not strengthening border security and not reducing the flow of people coming into the country — both legally and illegally.

On Friday, Ms. Coulter told the college students gathered at the Heritage Foundation that her first thought when Mr. Trump entered the GOP race was that she was glad that he would ensure immigration would get some attention.

Since then, she has come to believe that Mr. Trump, who has surged to the top of the GOP polls, has a real shot at winning the primary race, as well as the general election....

I’ll second that.
He’s the un-politician, just what this country needs.

I think he can win as well but will the Repub-Es allow it? They are adamant that Jeb be the nominee so Hitlery can win.

The only way Trump could win as a third party would be if Sanders also runs as a third party candidate.

A four-way race? Now that would be interesting.

If the GOP nominates ¡Yeb! and the Democrats nominate Hillary and Trump does run third party, I’ll hold my nose and vote for the lesser evil, Donald Trump.

The GOP has a death wish if they keep advocating for fraudulently documented foreigners

American citizens want the illegal alien inundation stopped.

That’s my thought as well, absolutely. He comes at exactly the right time. This country is being sold out like a cheap yard sale by these RINO punks who are in league with Obama every step of the way. The only real exceptions are Tom Cotton and Ted Cruz and I really do not think Cruz could win if Trump wasn’t around. The Repub-Es would work against him every step of the way. At least Trump is pushing back against these treasonous punks and giving himself and Cruz a fighting chance by giving a big voice to the people.

I love that Trump never backs down like the wimpy RINOs do.

I love how he deals with the media.

I would gladly vote for Trump. It’s about time we had a winner on our side.

I agree with you that he can win really big.

If 80% of ALL voters wanted Trump, the Convention will still pick Bush.

She says and does what will sell her books or get her in the news which will in turn sell her books.

She supported Romney and Christie and we're supposed to take her seriously?

I don't think so.

Ditto on all of that. I like Cruz, but we need someone with the attitude of Trump. He’s a fighter, a winner, loves America with a passion, and he’s sick of business as usual. IMHO, he’s the only one with what it takes to clean up DC, get China and Mexico to stop taking financial advantage of us, build that damn wall, etc. He can do it. Others might talk about it, but would get the vapors when they thought about really doing something. I love how he speaks the truth. America is hungry for the truth.

Trump makes both democrats and republicans look like lilliputian candidates.

Well FR pretty much discusses the topics of her books thoroughly before she writes them so that leaves her time to entertain any number of delusions.
