Conservative author Ann Coulter was one of the most vocal supporters of Donald Trump during the presidential campaign.

She wrote “In Trump We Trust” and proclaimed that she worships him like the “people of North Korea worship their Dear Leader – blind loyalty.”

Coulter described herself as a single-issue voter during the election and was drawn to Trump due to his “Mexican rapist speech” and him calling for a border wall to be built.

In an interview Sunday with The Daily Caller, Coulter let it be known she still has hope in the Trump presidency, but is ready to jump ship.

So there’s no wall, and Obama’s amnesties look like they are here to stay. Do you still trust Trump?

Uhhhh. I’m not very happy with what has happened so far. I guess we have to try to push him to keep his promises. But this isn’t North Korea, and if he doesn’t keep his promises I’m out. This is why we voted for him. I think everyone who voted for him knew his personality was grotesque, it was the issues.

I hate to say it, but I agree with every line in my friend Frank Bruni’s op-ed in The New York Times today. Where is the great negotiation? Where is the bull in the china shop we wanted? That budget the Republicans pushed through was like a practical joke… Did we win anything? And this is the great negotiator?

You said during the election and in columns that if there is no wall it’s the end of America.

googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1422917324169-1'); });

Trump was our last shot. I kind of thought it was Romney, and then lo and behold like a miracle Trump comes along. I still believe in Trumpism. I have no regrets for ferociously supporting him. What choice did we have?

We had no choice. Yeah, I mean, my fingers are still crossed. It’s not like I’m out yet, but boy, things don’t look good. I’ve said to other people, “It’s as if we’re in Chicago and Trump tells us he’s going to get us to LA in six days. But for the first three days we are driving towards New York. Yes, it is true he can still turn around and get us to LA in three days, but I’m a little nervous.

What’s behind him driving towards New York?

If he grabs the steering wheel and turns around and takes us toward LA, then I’ll just put it down to him not being a professional politician and having to come into the presidency with no support network, with all of official Washington against him.

I have from the beginning been opposed to Trump hiring any of his relatives. Americans don’t like that, I don’t like that. That’s the one fascist thing he’s done. Hiring his kids.

But I understand if you’re in Washington you don’t know who to trust, the party was against you, the politicians were against you, the bureaucracy was against you, and by the way this isn’t to say anything bad about Jared. Everything I know about him, I think he’s doing a great job. But even if he is absolutely the best person for the job, I don’t like the hiring of relatives.

I could understand all that if he gets control of the steering wheel and turns around and starts going towards LA.

If we just keep going to New York. Well again, I’ll say we had no choice, but the Trump-haters were right…It’s a nightmare. I can’t even contemplate that. Right now I’m still rooting for him to turn around and take us toward LA.

Are you going to be apologizing to these Never Trumpers?

I don’t apologize for supporting Trump. He said all the right things and nobody else would even say it. I suppose it’s possible that another politician who really meant it would come along. There’s Kris Kobach, Tom Cotton, Jeff Sessions…there are probably a handful of politicians.

I got to tell you when I wrote “Adios America” I thought there was a 10 percent chance of saving the country. On the evening of November 8, I thought, “Wow we have a 90 percent chance now, this is a chance that comes a long once every thousand years, we can save America now.”

And now, I don’t know, I’m someplace between 10 percent and 90 percent.

How much blame does congressional leadership deserve?

I do, of course, blame Congress most of all. They are swine. They only care about their own careers. Who knows how much of it is corruption and how much of it is pure stupidity? People should start sending Paul Ryan bricks to indicate how much we want the wall.

They are the opposition party to Donald Trump. This is really something we’ve never seen before. The president stands alone, it’s his own political party, he’s Gary Cooper. All we have is millions of Americans behind him, but he doesn’t have anybody in Washington behind him.

During the campaign you said you would have to start writing mystery books if Hillary Clinton won. Are you preparing to start writing these?

No. But I must say I’ve been contemplating it a bit more. You can’t give up yet. We have to keep Trump’s feet to the fire. It’s weird because I really think in his heart he’s a genuine patriot.

It’s just that it has been such a disaster so far, and that General Kelly is so preposterous, and McMaster — did you see him at that press conference? I thought he was retarded. You have to link to that video.

I’ve never actually heard anyone other than liberals mocking their idea of a stupid Republican say, “Murica.”

WATCH:

 

[Trump] might not have realized how intense the opposition was going to be. Not on everything. Nobody else would have done the trade deals, that is to save American jobs. But they are not going to complain and massively resist on trade. They are not going to massively resist him on things like tax cuts. They are going to love for him to go to war, we have to try to resist him on that.

The one thing he will get massive resistance from every source in Washington including his “own party” is immigration.

What does your friend Matt Drudge think of all of this? Recently on Michael Savage’s radio show he seemed nervous about the Trump administration.

I’ll let him speak for himself, but I think all of the Trump true believers are petrified.

This interview was edited and condensed for clarity.

Well your still a billion times better off than with Clinton. There is a difference between Clinton and Trump. I know hyperbole is how people get noticed but the right needs to get a spine. Yes Obummacare was not handled the way it should have but now its going to get squashed by the market. What is sad is that the GOP just could not let the demoncrap party take the blame as they should.

Perhaps.

But you couldn't prove that by the budget deal.

Also, Trump is enrolling more new DACA "Dream Students" every day, and giving them sanctuary just like Hillary would have.

After they've beheaded someone or other felony. Until that happens he's giving the illegal aliens sanctuary. In addition to their illegal invasion entry into the USA, they're being given a chance to commit more crimes that Americans won't!

No I think if Clinton would have been elected America would be on suicide watch right now. There would be zero resistance to far left programs and spending.

I just do not see there being a down side to Trump. All I have to do is remember Clinton would have been a 1000 times worse and I do not believe that is even a slight exaggeration.

Yes im disappointed in some of what has happen. Trump is finding out that demoncrats will never like him no matter if he pushed everything Clinton or Obama demanded. The progressive right can not be satisfied because they are closer aligned with the progressive left. Trump needs to remember who got him there. When he sticks with what he said he was going to do he wins for America as a whole but loses in the msm stamp of approval(which he would lose no matter what).

I guess we should have elected Clinton. Then everyone would be singing a different tune.

Would Clinton have knocked illegal alien trespassing down 90%?

Would Clinton have giving us anything other than a far left USSC justice?

Would Clinton be going after sanctuary cities?

Would Clinton let the military deal with Terrorism without having to check the PC hand book?

I read an article how Calipornia was about to lose $20 billion with a B because of what is proposed by Ryancare( which I hate because they should have just repealed the whole thing). Gov Brown is whining to the press about the hit.

Remember this is just over 100days into his reign. Yes he has some growing up todo and I think he will.

Its nice but with so much on the line with Clinton being the worst president ever back to back with the previous worst president in history would doom America for ever.

Im not going to scold you because its your right to vote for whoever you wish and under almost any other candidate I might have joined you with someone else(Neither stein or Johnson would ever get my vote). I know Clinton must never see the office! I actually did not vote for McCrazy even knowing Obama would win. Who knew that white guilt was so great that it voted for Obama not once but twice!!!

All I can say is if Clinton as president does not scare you to your core you just don't give a shit! LOL I think many have given up but I still have a little hope left.

Yeah,it's ALL Trump's fault,right? The Party People you people support like Lady Lindsey,McLunatic,and others have nothing to do with it,right?

Neither do the Dims that are throwing roadblocks in his way with the help of the media and the entertainment industry.

It's ALL Trumps fault,right? Hell,there weren't even any illegals or Muslims living in the US until he was sworn into office,and all this with people like you giving him your unwavering support in his efforts to toss them out!

OWN it,MoFo's!

Wrong, I don't support parties and certainly not any people like those.

Trump chose to follow Obama's DACA "Dream Student" executive order. He could have changed that with just a stroke of the pen. Looks to me like TRUMP is the one that supports McCain, Graham, Obama, Hillary and the open borders establishment global elites.

So yes, following Obama's executive order is Trump's fault. It requires no legislation at all to cancel DACA.

OWN Trump's sanctuary nation policy! There's no excuse for not canceling Obongo's EO, and deporting the illegal aliens wherever they're found. Their official immigration status is "Illegal Alien", and DACA does not change that.

This is why I never trust Ann Coulter. First she is right on and then does a 180! This is SOP for her.

Anyone with half a brain understands the complexity involved. It takes time.

Congress fights him every step of the way. Legalities need to be considered. He has already put out bids and will choose one design. He has been working on getting the land to build it on. Some refuse to allow it on their land. I suspect they are in on the drug money for passage. Others are grateful and donate their land. Some want cash for theirs. Eminent domain takes time. He will build that wall!

It is stupid to think he could build the wall in a few months.

Meanwhile, Brown is calling for special assistance from the Fed government. Now he wants to buy a fleet of vehicles for those who have none to use. The man spends and spends. No wonder they are so far in debt. He can't stop spending on crazy items like this.

I am old enough to remember the pubbies being obstructionists of the first order while a minority party, let alone controlling both houses.

They could be again if they weren't so corrupt.

If you see a difference in the ways either wing of the republicrat party governs, you have better vision than me.

Really? No one has stopped her yet. Both Clinton's should be in prison right now on what has been factual printed and the worst that could be done to them is well we can't prove they meant to break the law even though they signed a document telling her she could not do what she did.

They do not call the Clinton's Teflon because its kool. As far as I know there has been no one as corrupt as the Clinton's in the history of America.

In case it's not clear, Clinton's is possessive, not plural.

The plural form is Clintons. No apostrophe. Apostrophes are for contractions and possessives, says Bob the Angry Flower.

Here it is in B&W; might be easier to read:

Yup. Remove the people looking for grant money from a Clinton administration,homosexual rights,blacks,and/or a surrender to globalsim from her supporters,and there aren't enough people left to fill a mini-van. Even the hard left has abandoned her.
