Ann Coulter is a popular topic of debate any time she says an awful thing. She puzzles liberals who wonder if she actually believes the bile she spews with a big shiny smile, or if instead she's a fierce opportunist who plays to the hard right to make a fortune selling books, appearances, and a special line of muffs to keep tiny Grinch-sized hearts warm at night. (I assume. I'm not googling what the fuck Coulter sells.) Of course it doesn't matter either way. She's awful. And we can all agree that the thing she loves more than country or herself or money is fame. She's drawn to the hot seat like a moth to a flame. So of course she was going to say something racist and grotesque on the eve of election night. The sky is also blue. This is just the way of things.
If only people with at least 4 grandparents born in America were voting, Trump would win in a 50-state landslide.

Thankfully, the way of things also includes Twitter rising up to point out to Coulter how next level stupid this statement it. Sure, she means to basically say that America would be better off if only white people could vote, because she forgets that people of color have been in the U.S. dating back to the actual fucking natives of America! But she also forgets her criteria would mean the Republican Babadook couldn't vote either.
Note: Trump's mother was an immigrant. So even he wouldn't qualify to be one of your Volksamerikaner. @AnnCoulter https://t.co/hW4DbFayXT

@Gonzeux @Mikel_Jollett @AnnCoulter All four of Trump's grandparents were born in Europe, and so was his mother https://t.co/bMw83a1Vf4

Taking Ann Coulter's suggestion to its logical conclusion would mean today's election would be straight Navajo v Cherokee face off #USA2016

That's the exact standard the Nazis used.
True story.
@AnnCoulter on behalf of everyone of my generation with a Jewish grandparent: Fuck you.

I'm pretty damn proud to say not all four of my grandparents were born here. Shows how far we've come.

Shout out to Ann Coulter for getting in that last minute coded white supremacist rhetoric, right before the election https://t.co/BbLMvLbJiR

Kristy Puchko's four grandparents were all born in the US, and she's voting for Hillary.
