Ann Coulter Rips Trump's Tax Speech, Calls Him 'Tone Deaf'
Conservative commentator Ann Coulter took to Twitter Wednesday to blast President Donald Trump for his speech in Springfield, Missouri. Coulter appeared less than pleased with the president’s remarks about reforming taxes.
In the tweets, Coulter compared Trump to 2016 presidential candidate Jeb Bush – utilizing his oft-mocked campaign slogan “Jeb!” In a flurry of 140-character assaults, Coulter slammed Trump’s tax cutting plan.
“This is the worst, most tone-deaf speech @realDonaldTrump has ever given. Jeb! had better ideas,” Coulter tweeted Wednesday.
Trump touted a “fundamental reform” of the tax code and a 15 percent corporate tax rate in his speech.
“This speech could have been given by Jeb! – except he wouldn’t have talked about the govt helping yuppie women with child care costs,” Coulter wrote in a string of tweets. “Oh stop pretending this is about letting “families” keep more of their money. HALF OF AMERICANS DON’T PAY TAXES! This is for Wall Street.”
Coulter railed against Trump’s plan and said he got only “polite applause for tax cuts.” At one point, she suggested he talk about “THE WALL!”
“Bush cut taxes!” she wrote. “Did it create millions of jobs? Nope. The rich pocketed their tax cut & sent jobs abroad, hired guest workers, F--- them.”
