Coulter on Father of Deceased Muslim Soldier: ‘An Angry Muslim With a Thick Accent’
Lots of people, even many many conservatives, loved the patriotism that came from the mouth of Khizr Khan at the DNC tonight, but not Ann Coulter.
Khan is the father of a Muslim soldier who gave his life for his country, and he delivered a passionate speech talking about being proud Americans and about how hateful Trump has been towards Muslims.
Coulter, one of Trump’s biggest fans, reacted thusly:
You know what this convention really needed? An angry Muslim with a thick accent like Fareed Zacaria.

That was her big takeaway from a speech from the father of a deceased soldier. “Angry Muslim with a thick accent.”
She immediately got lots of blowback:

His son died in a war she pushed for, and this wealthy, pampered woman mocks his accent and faith. https://t.co/Fjgx5H4Llv

If you are going to tell me not to let her bother me, save it. I hope that kind of vileness always bothers me.

Is @AnnCoulter truly a despicable human being or does she just play one on tv? https://t.co/dW5QsmsLXd
