Right-wing pundit Ann Coulter, once a staunch President Trump supporter, doubled down in her attacks on The Donald this week.
The conservative commentator who called Trump an ‘ignoramus’ appeared on ‘Lou Dobbs Tonight’ on Fox Business Network on Wednesday and said she was disappointed how much Trump had changed from when he was a candidate.
‘A switch changed with him. An elegant person wouldn’t have said the things he was saying,’ Coulter, 56, said.
‘It was precisely that he was so coarse that allowed him to say these incredibly courageous things. He didn’t care what Manhattan elites thought of him.
‘Now all he wants is for Goldman Sachs to like him. don’t know what happened. But that’s a different president. I haven’t changed. He has.’

Coulter was just doubling down on her attacks that she delivered against Trump when she visited Columbia University on Tuesday night
These are not the first attacks that Coulter has thrown at the commander-in-chief.
To a group largely composed of College Republicans at Columbia University on Tuesday night, Coulter revealed that she was blinded in her view of Trump, reported The Daily Beast.
‘I knew he was a shallow, lazy ignoramus, and I didn’t care,’ she admitted to the audience at Columbia’s Roone Arledge Cinema.
During the debate between Coulter and neoliberal blogger Mickey Kaus, the conservative commentator said she was ‘heartbroken’ by Trump seeming to have changed since being elected.
‘It kind of breaks my heart,’ Coulter said, in reference to Trump’s weak follow-through on his highly-touted immigration policy. ‘He’s not giving us what he promised at every single campaign stop.’

However, despite her qualms, she said that Trump’s campaign was preferable to his rivals back in 2016 (Pictured, Trump on Friday)
Four days before the event at Columbia, Coulter ripped Trump on Twitter after he signed the $1.3 trillion omnibus spending bill
However, despite her qualms, she said that Trump’s campaign was preferable to his rivals back in 2016.
‘We had 16 lunatics being chased by men with nets running for president—and Trump,’ Coulter explained.
‘So of course I had to be pedal-to-the-metal for Donald Trump. I’d been waiting 30 years for someone to say all these things,’ she added, referring to his pledge to build a wall on the US-Mexico border.
Just four days before the Columbia event, Coulter slammed Trump on Twitter after he signed the $1.3trillion omnibus spending bill Friday.
She claimed the bill favored too much funding for Democratic programs but none for GOP pledges such as the border wall.
After the signing, Trump said: ‘There are a lot of things that I’m unhappy about in this bill…I say to Congress that I will never sign another bill like this again.’
Coulter mocked Trump on Friday, tweeting: ‘”I will never sign another bill like this again”. Yeah, because you’ll be impeached.’
