She is just another vile MAGAcretin

Had to vent. I see it coming as sure as the sunrise.

She helped the USA reach here...she's just another racist shithole

As did everyone I named and more.

But it is satisfying to see her turn on Trump and his "idiot" base.

It basically shows what an inept politician McDonald is.

Don't you think it's healthy to have healthy debate with some of the former Repiblicans?

They're wrong, and even before trump their policy choices were failures. What's to debate? Debate only legitimizes that which is failed.

What don't you like about her 4 PM show? Give me one example.

Pelosi has said we need a strong, viable Rrpiblican Party. Wallace was fired from The View for not being the right wing mouthpiece they wanted. Her show on MSNBC is consistently digging into the daily dreck in the White House. Pretty sure Pelosi considers her leagues away from Ann Coulter.

She adores her war criminals

She has been a threat to democracy ever since she was born.

This is a great post.

Stop listening to opinions people.

The one line threads especially during speeches and events drive me bonkers too.

But I've never been accused of being the brightest bulb in the lamp. Can you elaborate for me?

When some regularly moronic rightwing scum says one thing we like people jump all over it.
Bil Kristol, who's been anti-Trump all along, says or writes something DU eats it up. He's still Bill Kristol. She's still Ann Coulter. Etc.

It was the last part I didn't grasp.

Like yesterday. He has the babbling rose garden event and DU has threads about one little thing. Like each thing he says gets a thread.

Thanks. Sorry for being so thick!

I can't believe the fawning attention he gets here. No one deserves it less.

I should have included it. Thanks.

... but I do get your point. Some of the rightwingers may seem to be our friends just now, but we have to realize that they never will be. Nor do they want to be our friends. We'd be stupid to think so.

she's just so lovable!

and I can't imagine that anyone would post such a thing about her. Ugh. Bleah.

same here.

I couldn't have imagined people here adoring Steve Schmidt or Nicole Wallace either a few years back.

"good" when they say something decent, but I never, ever forget who they are.

Even Ana Navarro, who has said some good stuff, I don't trust. I do, however, enjoy what she says!

Thanks, couldn't remember her name or she'd have been included.

who voted for Jill stain

outrage at the "newly discovered" racism in her party (which she ignored for years). Gives me plenty of reason to keep her at a healthy distance.

or a clever turn of phrase, but we can never, ever forget that they are not our friends.

They just like their racism and corruption more subtle. The reason they don't like Trump isn't his agenda, it is that he is blatant about it rather than hiding it under pretty words.

Thanks for filling in what I didn't have the ability to say! I'm no writer. And my ability to express myself often falls short of the mark I'm trying to hit. You nailed it!

Even worse are the calls for her to run for President--as a Democrat. SMGDH. No thank you.

Oh well, there are a lot of us out here who laugh at their burns and still recognize that the enemy of my enemy may be my temporary ally, but not my friend.

Her sinking ship should go down with her on it.

No worries here. (with me)

who are now upset by the loss of position the arrival of the right-wing messiah tRump has brought about. They were fine with the last 38 years of propaganda, just not the last 2 years. I'll never forget who they really are.

But you said it better! "They're the priests and priestesses of the right
who are now upset by the loss of position the arrival of the right-wing messiah tRump has brought about"

Fucking brilliant. Wish I had that kind of command of the English language.

She's a nasty piece of work and her words and the harm they cause can never be redeemed.

for even those who have excused (and make excuses for) rethugs in sheeps' clothing.

Ana Navarro, Steve Schmidt, Nicole Wallace, Kurt Bardella, Jennifer Rubin, David Frum, Bill Kristol, Rick Wilson, Andrew Sullivan - they are not our friends or allies, no matter how friendly they may seem. They never have been.

Same goes for professional politicians like Jeff Flake and Bob Corker.

If and when rethugs wise up and return to reality, all the above will go running back to the GOP's welcoming embrace where they will turn and spit on us.

Just because we may agree with something they said today, doesn't mean they can be trusted. Just because they're regularly on MSNBC doesn't make them allies. I will never forgive these people for calling us traitors while W was sacrificing the lives of our sons and daughters for political gain.

is a useful tool .. not quite a friend.

I agree 100%. Don't be fooled by these people. They go where the grass is greener. I have never respected any of them and Sarah Palin included. IF we want to win the next election, we need to 'wise up'.

Trump is a logical extension from Bush/ Cheney. Which was an extension of Reagan. There is errant socioeconomic theory on the march in my lifetime. The effects have been predicted all along the way.
Environmental degradation
Inconceivable income inequality
The rise of fascism in our country.
White nationalism.
Etc

These personalities should have functioned as the fourth estate, not cheerleaders.

Asking for a friend.

The welts will go away. The poison she will inject into said friends soul will do lasting damage.

For what is worth, I cannot agree more with your entry...These people will run towards or away anything that doesn't enrich them, you said it very well.

Been reading since 2004 and I can’t recall seeing one. Was there a post today loving her?

But there have been plenty of love fests for Ana Navarro. And Steve Schmidt. And Nicole Wallace. There has even been kind words about Bill "the bloody" Kristol. Now that Coulter is consistently bad mouthing the idiot in chief, I'm being pre-emptive. I don't wanna have to replace my phone or laptop because I threw up on it. Dig?

make me like her or say anything positive about her. I will, however, enjoy watching them eat their own.

Coulter remains a truly awful person lacking empathy or compassion. She’s merely peeved she didn’t get her way.

But I think Nicolle Wallace hated sarah palin. Not initially, but developed a disdain for her during the campaign.

Knowing full well she was utterly unqualified. Again, not commendable in my book. I have more disdain for her because of that. As we all should in my opinion. But, you know what they say about opinions. Mine is no more valuable than anyones. Okay, maybe it is, but not by much!

She nasty. Nothing but an opportunistic vulture who will do or say anything to appear relevant.

But if she keeps bad mouthing the orange menace, someone will. Hence the request.

Yes Nicole worked on the McCain campaign but she feuded with Palin. She was so upset with Palin that she refused to vote in that election.
No one on cable news, including Rachel, does more to bring Trump down. You all can keep watching Tweety and Chuck Toad, I’m watching Nicole Wallace. Remember this, St. Paul used to be Saul.
Big mistake comparing Wallace with Coulter, I agree with the rest of your rant. Peace.

We'll have to agree to disagree. If she had left the campaign I might have a bit of respect for her. She didn't. She stayed in till it was over working to get the person elected that she supposedly "fueded" with. And might I add, sitting out an election in which the VP is completely unqualified and second in line to someone who was elderly and had health issues instead of voting for the qualified candidate is not something that should be commended. No, she certainly is not as vitriolic or hateful as Coulter. We can agree on that. But I will not ever trust her, nor forgive her until she comes out as a Democrat. And best to my knowledge, she has yet to do so.

I hated her during W's administration, but only because she was eloquent and smart, and fighting for the wrong side. I don't really remember her during the '08 campaign.

Here's my thing about conservatives: I wish there was a credible, reasonable, viable conservative party because I think our political system would benefit from healthy debate about the issues with people who have worthwhile opinions to share. I don't hate all conservatives. I DO hate what the GOP has become, and don't blame any of those you named for jumping ship. (Last I heard, Coulter still calls herself a republican.) But among all of them, Wallace is the only one I can listen to for more than five minutes.

Also, we should add to the list of idiotic former republicans who should never be taken seriously: Joe Scarborough.

I don't blame them either. But I do take issue with liberals here who post love fest posts about these people. These people are directly responsible for Trump. They turned a blind eye, shit, they embraced the misogeny and racism that runs through the veins of the GOP for political expediance. In a normal society, they'd be laughed off whatever stage they stand on. They should never, ever, ever be lauded on a site for Democrats. Period. And you ain't shitting about Joe Scar. Fuck him. Fuck him with the tailgate of a F250. And if people quit watching him, he'd be gone. Then maybe we could get a good liberal voice like Joy Reid in the morning.

she runs circles around Joy. Let me also point out, if you had watched Nicole, I don't know if you ever do, she has apologized for her roles in the Bush administration and McCain campaign. You are again wrong in using "these people" to include Nicole. I totally agree with your take on the other people. I don't say anything about Joe Scar because I NEVER watch him, you must to be able to form an opinion about him.

Nicole Wallace destroys Trump, every day, at 4 PM eastern. She has the best guests on her show. It isn't even close with me regarding Nicole. She reminds me of Dylan Ratigan with her passion. Too bad we don't have more Nicoles on cable news, it is filled with right wing parrots. There are only 2 people I watch religiously on cable news; Nicole and Rachel, and Nicole is better than Rachel.

Oh, and one more thing.....

There are no good republicans.

...is NOT our friend.

And that is as kind as I can be.

points. But, everyone should have a shot at redemption. Yup, even her. I still haven't forgiven Rick Wilson for the multiple hit jobs he ran for Saxby Chambliss at the expense of Vietnam war veteran, Max Cleland. Cleland lost three limbs in Vietnam and he portrayed him as weak on national defense, a coward and everything republicans do to paint their electoral opponent as unworthy. He is quite the wordsmith but, until he apologizes for that episode of his life and for the ways he denigrated Max Cleland... fuck him and his opinions. Same with Ann. When they apologize for the damage they've done, I'll welcome their opinions.

but I do love when fascists turn on each other.

an I love Ann Coultergeist post...EVER. We can’t forget who these people are. Way to be out in front of the shit show....these hacks will continue to distance themselves from MF45 and we can’t let them succeed in the effort. MF45 is THEIR guy. They can sit and spin on that fact.

And just wait, the new talking point once the wheels come off the wagon will be "he wasn't a true conservative. He wasn't a re eal Republican. It was Trumpism." Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit. This is the party the people I named engineered. They were just fine with the racist dogwhistles as long as it helped win elections. They were fine with homophobia as long as it helped elections. They were just fine with breaking a 6 year filibuster record in 2 years to win elections. They own this. They created this monster. And it pisses me off that some my DU family are handing out life preservers and lifeboats to these GOP strategists and talking heads.

of his cable news screeds against trump, now he's taken the money of the coffee billionaire to siphon votes away from Dems which will help trump.

Oh how the worm turns when money trumps principle.

and FUCK YEAH!!

has me asking is Ann Coulter ,, Andy Kaufman in some strange stunt ??

I'm still expecting Trump to one day be at the podium, rip off the mask and expose himself as Kaufman screaming, "I got you fuckers! " This whole episode is fucking surreal.

<3

And until she refunds every one of the cult members their money back as well as any advances or royalties she received from this steaming, putrid, fetid pile of excrement she wrote, she can just STFU. Hell, she should do it anyway. Hey, Annie, I guess your Dear Leader is E Pluribus Not-So-Awesome after all.

Couldn't have said it better meself!

Wallace & Schmidt are not Democrats, certainly, but they are not shock hate radio hosts like Coulter and Limpballs. Coulter and Limpballs exist for the purpose of stirring trouble and stoking hatred against liberals. Wallace is a legitimate Republican operative who has opinions across the spectrum on the right. Schmidt is worse than Wallace, but not a hate radio host like Coulter.

I don't even know much about Rick Wilson. He's been a pundit on tv for years, but he's so boring that I never notice much what he says.

I have not seen any posts that say "I love Steve Schmidt" or "I love Nicole Wallace." But they do make legitimate points sometimes about Trump and the direction of their political party.

And no, you are right, they aren't the same. The difference, in my opinion, is Coulter and Limbaugh know their bread is buttered by the grinningly ignorant on the right. Schmidt and Wallace don't have that kind of loyal base, so they go where the wind blows. As you've seen by Schmidt's recent antics aka Schultz, he ain't your friend or ally. Please stop throwing these assholes life preservers. Let them drownd.

Exactly...!

She calls herself a reformed Republican, so I don't think she's going back.

Also, I don't think she worked her ass off to get Sarah Palin elected--she worked her ass off to get John McCain elected. He may have been a Republican, but he wasn't stupid-and-proud-of-it like Palin is.

I love Rick Wilson's way with words, and I admire his honesty in that in his book he basically admits that he hasn't changed his colors--he's just anti-Trump. He's a scorpion who'll at least tell you flat out that he's still a scorpion. Props.

I agree with you that we shouldn't assume that anti-Trump Republicans are on our side, but I'll continue to like the ones I like.

And I'm sorry renate, if you know anything about me, I'm not one to intentionally insult people. And I hope I'm not insulting you now. It's certainly not my intention. But honestly, this post was for folks like you who are supplying lifeboats to these people. No offense intended. We'll have to agree to disagree.

disagreed with Palin, and eventually was so upset with her that she didn't even vote for McCain. Facts are what they are. Have you ever watched her show? I'm guessing you haven't if you think that Joy Reid has a better show, and I like Joy.

Nicole Wallaace has proven herself repeatedly to be of fine character and a true patriot. She can have my seat in the "lifeboat".

The lifeboat is for GOP personell who are trying to flee the sinking ship. Surely this isn't you.

We can agree to disagree, but if you believe these people who were okay with racism and homophobia for literal decades have suddenly had a come to Jesus moment, you're deluding yourself.

Like facts, Climate Change, treaties, going back to alienating tyrannical dictators, civil rights, etc, etc.

She has a healthy outlook which most Americans can agree with.
https://www.facebook.com/TheView/videos/10152610518926524/?sfnsn=mo

Why not list the actual racists like Ingraham, Dobbs, Hannity, Kelly, etc? We actually need to separate true fascists from former Republicans who left the Party because the Party left them. Coulter belongs to no party. Like Bill O'Reilly.

Because liberals aren't proclaiming their love for them. And I'm sorry, the party didn't leave them. This Trump phenomenon neither happened overnight nor in a vacuum. This has been coming for a very long time. And now that it's hit critical mass, the smarter ones are trying to rebrand themselves. And, might I add, this attempt at rebranding did happen literally overnight.

And I'm glad Nancy Pelosi sees the big picture and would agree with me I'm sure. No politician will take care of you. They are supposed to represent us. Journalists inform us. I totally resisted the Greta Van Susternen/Megan Kelly deal/firesale. I'm sorry Steve Schmidt opted to back Schultz. He was the most articulate never-trumper out there. Both Wallace and Schmidt had a desire to help John McCain. I can respect that.

I'll never be as extreme as some in here because I believe we need all hands on deck for the future's biggest challenges. Trying to play the long game. I wish more would see the big picture.

I'm talking about replacing the voices that led us down this path in the first place. Steve Schmidt is a perfect example. Whether or not he's particularly articulate is irrelevant. As I and others here warned, he turned on the Democratic party the first chance he got. Just because we like what they say today doesn't mean they should be trusted or embraced. Part of the long game should be ignoring the voices that put us here in the first place.

I don't have to like Rick Wilson or Steve Schmidt but they aren't the existential crisis facing our nation right now. So I don't see the need to take the occasion of their attacking the real problem to attack them.

Focus people...

They're only the ones that engineered this existential crisis. Focus people!

Besides, we all spend most time on the “existential crisis”. Especially Glam.

It's like "multi-tasking" in your fight against Godzilla by waiting until a pack of pigs are distracted by gnawing at his ankles to sneak up behind them and butcher the pigs.

Are they pigs? Yes. Did you actually accomplish anything by attacking them? No. You've just made your own job harder.

Russian intelligence is running a psy-ops campaign in this country. That's Godzilla. To the extent that anyone wants to speak out against that, I don't see that behaviour as my cue to start bitching about how they're actually not a very nice person. Because there are people who will listen to these assholes who won't listen to us. And we need to be in 100% uniform solidarity that Russian intelligence running our country is a bad thing.

What actually do you think it accomplishes to undermine their credibility while they're saying something you agree with?

I don’t have four paragraphs for you....
But keep up the good work.
I’ll continue to think and say what I want.

Ann has unquestionably proven her value.
























As a lawn decoration on Halloween.

I live among the Trumpers in Central Pa. they have a small local newspaper that I have been buying for 50 years. I dropped my subscription and sent a note to the editor why, it was because they started printing guest columns by Ann Coulter. Ann Coulter is the embodiment of pure bigotry,racism, hatred, and evil.

Comparing Ann Coulter to Nicole Wallace is a joke. Anyone who believes that it is a good thing for msnbc to cancel Nicole's show supports Donald Trump, IMO. How many Democrats have the guts to call Trump a traitor? Nicolle does. How many Democrats are calling for Trump's impeachment? Nicolle does. How many Democrats have suggested that the 25th Amendment be used to remove Trump from office? Nicolle has.

Nicolle Wallace has more guts in condemning Trump than half of our Democratic politicians. I'm not bashing Democratic politicians but there are a lot of them who are pushing to wait before we go after Trump. I'm just saying that I am in the Auntie Maxine camp, we need to push forward now with guns blazing.

I would rather someone start a thread debating whether our Democratic candidates should be running on the platform of cooperating with Republicans. How about that folks? I won't name names because I will support whoever our nominee is, but IMO opinion we need a tough as nails candidate to be our candidate for president, that's my #1 consideration.

I do NOT consider them good guys all of a sudden, but I will admit even I enjoyed what he said from time to time.

But they are NOT our friends...I love what FRUM says on Lawrence, I do...he says it from a position of knowledge and that makes it even more valuble

BUT

while he is NOT a traitor, Frum, he will sell out every lower middle class and poor American faster than he can snap his fingers if given a chance.

So fuck him.

Even though i said i wouldnt i watched Coulter on Maher and wanted to scream...I cant honestly figure out if she hates bronwn people as much as she admitted to and admits to every time she opens her mouth or like Ed Schultz and others just says shit because it pays to.

And you know, you fucking know, had Hillary won he'd be supporting every action the GOP took against her.

You don't have to love them to work with them.
We have all arrived at the realization that we have a common problem, and it is a big one. We undoubtedly have different long range goals but nobody is getting anything now.

We are not going to be rid of this problem by sanitizing our bubble. The never Trump rightwingers play the same tune - they can't stand the idea of working with Democrats, especially the female ones. We can't do much about their issues, but we can mind ours.

If you think that we in the US can have the luxury of continuing to have our government led by a mental incompetent, who hires only grifters and goofs, & who is probably under the thumb of one or more foreign powers, then I guess you stick with purity.

Otherwise ... the right wingers who are fed up can help us with the Senate. If we want to get rid of this rotten person that's the only way forward. We have no leverage with the Republican seantors, no chance of convincing them, & almost no chance of changing the Senate in the future. On the other hand ... they do.

#1 by giving these dead enders a legitimate platform, we extend and legitimize everything thay led us here in the first place.

#2 see Steve Schmidt. Working for Shultz which will immediately drop 4 points in the election in Trumps favor.

Stop handing out life preservers! These assholes got us here in the first place.

People come in all shapes and sizes as do their political beliefs. Most people are smart enough to know there will ALWAYS be the other side, and yet there are always a few foolish folks who think the GOP is dead or dying and it’s only a matter of time before a progressive utopia dawns and everyone will lock arms in a singalong. That is of course never going to happen. So since there will ALWAYS be an opposition id rather it be the Nicole Wallace’s of the world calling the shots within the GOP than someone like Tom Cotton who is a fanatic. My guess is people like the OP and many of the posters in the thread are either unable or unwilling to make those distinctions.

Is that these people have worked against us for decades and we need to keep that in mind whenever they open their pieholes. Decades have been spent demonizing those of us on the left by these people to the point that the most qualified candidate in a generation lost an election to the most unqualified candidate in a century. Pretending an MSNBC host is calling the shots in todays GOP because we like what she says is both delusional and dangerous. What the OP is trying to say, is that these people need to be removed from the public discourse for the damage they've done in the past. Liberals shouldn't be handing them the reset button.

Signed,
The dude who wrote the OP

Ann Coulter, or these others, on here. No prob.

The meaning of her statement is not the same as our meaning of the exact same words. The underlying reasons are different. We know she does not think he is an idiot for the reasons that we think he is.

A million times.

Great post, Glam.
