Ann Coulter Featured At Rob Lowe Roast
In Trump We Trust: E Pluribus Awesome!, an obviously pro-Donald Trump book, happened to have been untimely released. The Republican nominee himself messed it up, in effect, betraying its bestselling author, Ann Coulter, with his sudden change of mind on immigration policies.
Whether Coulters latest book will join her list of 12 New York Times bestsellers, no one can tell, at least this early. One thing is sure, though. The author of In Trump We Trust, upon hearing Donalds recent massive flip-flops on immigration issues, fumed, resorting to some tweet storming business to discredit her main man in the book.
Only part he left out was the "hoops" they"ll have to jump through! Trump:"No citizenship. Let me go a step furtherthey"ll pay back-taxes"

Trump: "they have to pay taxes, there"s no amnesty" [Pro Tip: "Back taxes" means we pay illegals $30k apiece in EITC.}

It"s not "amnesty." It"s "comprehensive immigration reform"!!!! Trump: "they have to pay taxes, there"s no amnesty."
Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) August 25, 2016
Well, if it"s "hard," then nevermind. Trump: " to take a person who"s been here for 15 or 20 years .It"s a very, very hard thing."

For some unknown reason, the author of In Trump We Trust later retracted.

Coulters message in her 182-page hagiography, as Dan Roberts of the Guardian aptly called it, is loud and clear.
Theres nothing Trump can do that wont be forgiven. Except change his immigration policies.
That could have given the Republican presidential wanna-be a further veneer of respectability, said Roberts, had he not squandered it.
As the Guardians Washington bureau chief had it, Unfortunately, at the very moment of the book-signing, that was exactly what Trump was doing.

Just days ago Trump reshuffled his campaign staff just as he tries to recalibrate his message for the general election, in which his tough stance on immigration may be more of a liability than it was in the Republican primary. [Photo by Gerald Herbert/AP Images]In an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity, Trump proved to have softened his previously tough anti-immigration policies to win the moderates, through which emerged a rather different figure than the one Coulter portrayed in her In Trump We Trust.
Responding to Hannitys query on the fate of approximately 11 million undocumented immigrants living in the United States, Trump said that, should he become Americas next president, while these people will get no citizenship, they will be required to pay taxes in exchange for legal status, provided we get the bad ones out.
Acknowledging that everybody in the audience agrees with the idea, the Republican presidential hopeful went on to say that when I go through and meet thousands and thousands of people on this subject, and theyve said, Mr Trump, I love you, but to take a person whos been here for 15 or 20 years and throw them and their family out, its so tough, Mr Trump. I have it all the time! Its a very, very hard thing.
Exchanges of comments continued on in the show until Trump made his point even clearer.
Those people that have been working so hard to come into the country and going through the process, the conservative GOP nominee said, were going to take them in, and were going to cherish them, and theyre going to love us. We want the ones that want to love us, not the ones that want to create problems.

But unlike many Trump defenders, Beinart pointed out, Coulter makes clear that her primary allegiance is not to Trump the man.
Its to the nostalgic Make America White Again brand of conservatism that she began peddling even before he did, Beinart said. In In Trump We Trust, Coulter calls Trump a tasteless, publicity-seeking, coarse billionaire and argues that, the one thing voters werent wild about was his personality."
If Trump were to succeed in his bid for the presidency, according to Beinart, alluding to what Coulter has to say in the book, it would be because his campaign has been ideological, which falls into line with American white supremacists protests against the federal governments immigration policies.
Considering Trumps recent change of mind on immigration issues, however, it is very likely that he will lose the support of this segment of American electors.
Only last Saturday in Iowa, the Republican nominee was heard again with yet another flip-flop on the issue, promising crackdown on immigrants, Clay Masters of the NPR reported, including removing the hundreds and thousands of criminal illegal immigrants that have been released into the United States and United States communities under the incompetent Obama/Clinton administration.
