Ann Coulter Deletes Heartless Gus Walz Tweet After Backlash

https://www.yahoo.com/news/social-media-slams-ann-coulter-163048086.html


The moment Gus got to his feet clapping, crying and pointing at his father was captured live on TV and prompted an outpouring of positivity for the teenager.

But it was also latched on to by elements of the online right, with Coulter writing “Talk about weird...” in a post on X Thursday. The Harris-Walz campaign has successfully been using the ‘weird’ description to describe Donald Trump and JD Vance.

However, she appeared to quickly delete the post after social media erupted with anger. (In case you missed it, we screenshotted it.)

because the win in November will be so decisive they will not be able to wreak their havoc. In reality I don't believe there is a low for these vile jackals. Think of every terrible thing you can imagine associated with the loss of democracy in the USA.

I remember being devastated in 2016 and then his administration was worse than I had even imagined it could be, and then post 2020 election they continued to get worse, stormed the Capitol, QAnon, all the crap I could never imagine happening in my lifetime. I think it would be naive to think that they will suddenly be civilized if TCFSF were to win. or steal with the SC's help.

most extreme of the right-wing nutters. Now she's been outdone by the Trumpists and no longer has the ability to shock people with her outrageous statements. Then when she does try, she gets shut down with lightning speed.

Must be painful to become so irrelevant after being the Queen of Mean for so long.

the thought didn't even cross my mind watching his emotional release following his father's
acceptance speech. I thought it was a healthy non-problematic young male child's attack of unusual emotional joy considering that most boys are taught to hold back all emotions... never let 'em see you cry!

She found the spotlight, then immediately went skittering back into the darkness when she realized how unflattering she looked in the light.
