During a recent interview on CSPAN, Ann Coulter, a well-known conservative commentator, expressed her enthusiasm for the early days of Donald Trump’s second presidency. She shared her thoughts on how his loss in the 2020 election might have led to positive changes in his approach this time around.
Coulter, who campaigned for Trump in 2016, made it clear that she has high hopes for his current term. She recalled her excitement when he won the presidency, but also her frustration during his first term, particularly after he brought in advisors like Jared Kushner and Gary Cohn, whom she felt pushed him away from his original promises. She mentioned a heated encounter in the Oval Office where she voiced her concerns about his failure to deliver on key issues like trade and immigration.
Reflecting on Trump’s defeat in 2020, Coulter suggested that the intense scrutiny and criticism he faced from the left may have fueled his determination to fulfill his campaign promises in his second term. She expressed her satisfaction with what she has seen so far, saying, "I’m getting everything I voted for. I mean, even more." She highlighted specific actions he has taken, such as changes to water pressure regulations and efforts to address immigration issues, including an executive order related to "anchor babies," which she is hopeful will be upheld by the Supreme Court.
Coulter urged Congress to make some of these changes permanent through legislation. She believes the legal basis for these actions is strong and is eager to see how the Supreme Court will rule on the matter.
This interview showcases Coulter’s strong support for Trump and her belief that his second presidency is on a better path than the first. As she looks ahead, she remains optimistic about the potential for significant changes that align with her conservative values.
