[The Hill] Conservative firebrand Ann Coulter late Friday continued to blast President Trump's decision to end the 35-day partial government shutdown without securing funds for a border wall, saying he was outmaneuvered by Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).
"We thought, ’Hey, maybe this guy’s wacky enough, he won’t care what the elite say, and he’ll build the wall.’ That was what put him in the White House. He has got to build the wall," Coulter said on Los Angeles radio station KNX.
"There’s no question but that Nancy Pelosi got the better of Donald Trump."
Coulter on Friday afternoon called Trump "the biggest wimp ever to serve as President of the United States" after he announced that he would support reopening the government with obtaining funds for a border wall.
The immigration hard-liner has repeatedly pushed Trump to immediately start construction on a wall and she said shortly before the shutdown began in December that she would not vote for Trump again in 2020 without a border wall. |
