A handful of Donald Trump supporters are beginning to worry that the harried president won’t make good on his promise to build the wall. Author and political commentator Ann Coulter is among the Trump faithful who are beginning to have their doubts.
In an interview Sunday with The Daily Caller, Coulter said she still has hope that Trump can turn the ship around.
“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,” she said.
“I still believe in Trumpism. I have no regrets for ferociously supporting him. What choice did we have?” she added.
“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.”
Daily Caller: Are you going to be apologizing to these Never Trumpers?
AC: 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.
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.
What does your friend Matt Drudge think of all of this?
I’ll let him speak for himself, but I think all of the Trump true believers are petrified.
