This gave me a chuckle. I know Ann Coulter is a joke, but I find it funny when she proves it over and over again. Not being one to even begin to go out of my way to find out about her books, I only just discovered the full title of her latest: “In Trump We Trust: E Pluribus Awesome!”
I refuse to dignify that with italics.

Her day is coming. She will announce a press conference and the only ones there will be the _Akron Shopper’s Guide_ and _Daily Caller_.

It was someone from NBC doing the interview. I don’t know if is just me, but the doctor looked stoned out of his gourd.
Something else I haven’t seen an answer to - why get a gastroenterologist to give a general report on health?

And when Roccet, from the movie _Colors,_ calls you out for being callous about inner city street violence, you’ve definitely reached a new low.

The only one who is laughing harder than Rush is Hilary. 😃

Yeah, right. First hour will be making himself dean of every university. Second hour will be selling cheap homes to non-white people in Trumpville, complete with a wall! 😃

That’s because he has the best hours! The hugest hours! He’ll do a whole four year presidency in one hour! Because he has to. He just has to. Believe me.

That doesn’t seem materially different from any of his other campaign promises–they all require magic in order to be realized.

[Trump is selling LGBTQ for Trump merch on his website](http://www.thenewcivilrightsmovement.com/johnwright/trump_selling_lgbt_merch_despite_opposition). I don’t think even the Log Cabin Republicans are supporting him, are they?

“Democrat National Committee”? I know of a Democratic National Committee, but what is the Democrat National Committee?

He tried to turn his VP into a Newt but that didn’t take, so it’s doubtful.

They’re the ones coordinating with ACORN to ensure Trump loses in deep red states like Massachusetts and California.
