Coulter mocks Trump's immigration muddle

By Nick Gass

Ann Coulter revealed her sense of disgust with Donald Trump's latest comments on immigration in which he suggested an openness to changing his hard-line stance on illegal immigration.

Speaking to Fox News' Sean Hannity in a town hall event broadcast Wednesday night, Trump floated multiple ideas for the audience's reaction, including one in which undocumented immigrants would pay "back taxes" but added, "there's no amnesty, but we work with them." Trump recounted meeting with "very strong people" who have told him "it's so tough" to throw out people who have been in the country for 15 to 20 years.

"It's a very, very hard thing," Trump conceded.

In a series of tweets late Wednesday and early Thursday, Coulter offered her thoughts, suggesting that Trump's latest remarks showed an openness to the same immigration platforms championed by his GOP primary rivals.

"Well, if it's 'hard,' then nevermind," Coulter tweeted sarcastically in response to that comment.

"Only part he left out was the "hoops" they'll have to jump through! Trump:"No citizenship. Let me go a step further—they'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." "

"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." "

Coulter then retweeted an image of Trump's signature Make America Great Again hat with the words "THEY WILL PAY BACK TAXES."

"Do with this what you will, friends."

In her final tweet of the night, Coulter retweeted a post "Muslim [collecting] 4 years of welfare in Maine while becoming radicalized & joined ISIS!"

"It's 'hard' to deport someone who's been here FOUR YEARS!" Coulter wrote.

The conservative commentator, in the midst of a book tour for "In Trump We Trust: E Pluribus Awesome!" that included a launch party hosted by Breitbart News on Wednesday night, threatened earlier this week to abandon her efforts if Trump is softening his stance on immigration.
