I've seen Coulter a few times on "Real Time." There's a glimmer of intelligence to her, and then she turns into a mouthpiece who says controversial things just....because. She's like O'Reilly but worse.
But "overwhelmed with immigrants" and "lights out for America?" What does that even mean? For people like me, who have deep personal ties to someone who has immigrated here from another country, stuff like this doesn't make any f---ing sense. Is "America" some Christian, barn-stomping, non-stop State Fair with all you can eat pork rinds and white faces as far as the eye can see? What year are these people living in? And who built the US if not for immigrants? I truly do not get it. I've been hearing it for years and it's nothing but an excuse for racism.
Of course, I know that's obvious. I guess that's stupid of me for thinking they can even acknowledge reality and what they see outside.

As for what she says about a Trump defeat meaning the end of the GOP....no. I don't think it will be. We need political discourse in this country, and half the country is conservative. But since 2009 they have thrown the book out of the window on their platforms and gone increasingly wing-nut crazy. If it doesn't work with Trump, I don't see how they can go even FURTHER right. If he loses, lock the crazies up in the asylum again, and do what they said they'd do in 2012...rework their ideology. Put the fringe candidates back out on the fringe and stop giving them a front seat.
As a liberal guy, of course I'd like it all to go away. But it's not going away anytime soon. If it shifts, the shift will take a few decades.
