Ann Coulter should be a late night host

“If Trump had been Commander in Chief on June 6, 1944, yesterday we would have celebrated the anniversary of the president putting a tariff on German goods, then going golfing.”
Ann Coulter

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

Come to think of it . . . most late night hosts make fun of the wall. OH well . . . at least the tariff stuff is funny. Hey . . . Trump still has time to slap tariffs on the Germans. Funny . . . I noticed the Mexies made a deal to stop a lot of those illegals in order to avoid tariffs. What a hoot!

Trump created an issue and solved it by claiming that things that were in process for months were now a “deal”
Not impressed and neither are the Mexicans, Canadians or Chinese that are negotiating trade agreements with the USA, but Trumplicans say way to go your Majesty
Once again Trump makes a deal NAFTA 2.0 and reneges, everyone trusts him

That's another way to spin it. Good job! You could be a late night host!

Not for nothing but all news networks are pretty much entertainment chanels.
Ann Coulter’s hate just entertains those who have similar hate. Rachel Maddows hate entertains another group. But you guys know this right?

Just because Trump says he won, doesn't make it true.

"The truth unquestionably is, that the only path to a subversion of the republican system of the Country is, by flattering the prejudices of the people, and exciting their jealousies and apprehensions, to throw affairs into confusion, and bring on civil commotion. Tired at length of anarchy, or want of government, they may take shelter in the arms of monarchy for repose and security.

Those then, who resist a confirmation of public order, are the true Artificers of monarchy—not that this is the intention of the generality of them. Yet it would not be difficult to lay the finger upon some of their party who may justly be suspected. When a man unprincipled in private life desperate in his fortune, bold in his temper, possessed of considerable talents, having the advantage of military habits—despotic in his ordinary demeanour—known to have scoffed in private at the principles of liberty—when such a man is seen to mount the hobby horse of popularity—to join in the cry of danger to liberty—to take every opportunity of embarrassing the General Government & bringing it under suspicion—to flatter and fall in with all the non sense of the zealots of the day—It may justly be suspected that his object is to throw things into confusion that he may “ride the storm and direct the whirlwind.”
Alexander Hamilton 1792

And I think of this every time I see Donald Trump riding the storm and directing the whirlwind:

"When a man unprincipled in private life desperate in his fortune, bold in his temper, possessed of considerable talents, having the advantage of military habits—despotic in his ordinary demeanour—known to have scoffed in private at the principles of liberty—when such a man is seen to mount the hobby horse of popularity—to join in the cry of danger to liberty—to take every opportunity of embarrassing the General Government & bringing it under suspicion—to flatter and fall in with all the non sense of the zealots of the day—It may justly be suspected that his object is to throw things into confusion that he may “ride the storm and direct the whirlwind.”

I'd say it's outrage more than hate. But really, Coulter and Maddow are not cut from the same cloth and I'm not even a big Maddow fan.

they both hate everyone who disagrees with them on any major issue. when was the last time
that Maddow admitted that those who disagree with her on any major issue, are still
nice people? all she does, all night long, is repeat some
variation of Hilary’s deplorables
comment.

They are both mean spirited
and dismissive. Biggest difference is that Coulter has some intellectual
credibility as she is right once in awhile ( she picked trump to win it all, very early on). Maddow is a fool, said hilary would
win in a landslide, broke the huge scoop on trumps tax return ( revealing that he paid a ton of taxes, wow what a scoop), she endlessly predicted collusion indictments for two years, etc...her ratings and credibility are finally in the toilet as even that audience apparently has limits to how often they are willing to be lied to and made fools of.

that whole prime time
lineup is a bunch of sexually ambiguous, shrieking marxists. they’re all sean hannity, all of them.
