It's been a long and winding road, but Ann Coulter appears to be back on the Trump train. That's the word from a Tuesday tweet from the far-right conservative, weeks after she expressed unease over the Trump administration's plans to deport green card holders over pro-Palestine protests. The 63-year-old publicly pondered at the time whether such moves were unconstitutional, after sparring with Trump on-and-off for the past several years.

The media are trying to pick the GOP nominee for us just like they did with John McCain. (Remember how great that worked out?) Once again, their pick is the whiny warmonger -- this time, Nikki Haley.No wall and guaranteed to lose! What's not to like? (Democrats: Please! Anyone but Gov. Ron DeSantis!)This week, headlines hyped the results of a Wall Street Journal poll showing Haley beating Joe Biden by 17 points!Does anyone think that Haley will beat Biden by 17 points? The only presidential election decided by anything close to that in the last half-century was in 1984, when...

But I'm willing to sacrifice that possibility just to wallow in the awfulness of this book. (Plus, recent press reports say he's thinking of running for mayor of New York, so it's topical.) Most dumbfounding, DeRosa brags...

McIntosh described DeSantis’ style as “refreshing” and suggested the GOP is ready to move on...

Ann Coulter: Trump is “profoundly stupid.”

Senate Republicans should offer to convict Donald Trump in return for Democrats agreeing to fund the wall. Trump is not going to run again anyway. In four years, he will be as viable a presidential candidate as Hillary was in 2020.
