COULTER: ‘I’M OFFENDED’ IS NOT AN ARGUMENT AGAINST TRUMP, FACTS BACK HIM UP

The pushback against Donald Trump’s comments about Mexican immigrants is emotional, knee-jerk and not fact-based, according to political commentator and author of the new book ‘Adios, America’ Ann Coulter.

Monday, NBC announced it was cutting ties with Trump following the backlash over the GOP presidential contender’s view that Mexican immigrants are bringing their problems to the U.S.

“They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people,” Trump said during his campaign announcement earlier this month.

Coulter, who devotes a goodly portion of her new book to immigrant crime and the media’s failure to report fully on the “immigrant crime wave,” points out that arguments against Trump amount to a straw man claim that “not all Mexicans are rapists.”

“The point is: Why should America be taking in ANY RAPISTS?” Coulter wrote in an email to Breitbart News. “Were we short on rapists? By definition, we’re talking about people who have no right to be here. If Mexico is sending us 2 rapists – THEY’RE SENDING US RAPISTS.”

As Coulter points out in “Adios, America” and noted to Breitbart News, “the evidence indicates that they’re sending a lot more than” just two rapists.

“Child rape used to be an incredibly rare crime in America,” she explained. “Not anymore! In some Hispanic neighborhoods in the the United States of America, police have given up on even prosecuting statutory rape. It’s a ‘cultural thing.’”

I heard nothing but the truth from Trump.

Being offended is a Constitutional right, but does nothing.

The Dems squirm at the sound of the truth. I must admit that Trump left out all the drunk Mexicans who drive around without a license or insurance.

I still can't wait for the debates,the first being on August the 6th I believe.Maybe he'll have his anger issues under control by then.Focused anger is a good thing,but lashing out at everyone is not.Being correct (which he is)and being in control are 2 different things.If he loses it on stage while among the other Repub contenders he'll be eaten alive,first by the competition and then later by the MSM.That first debate will be telling.
