Ann Coulter Mocked For Contradictory Tweets About Ted Cruz Birtherism…
I didn’t think Trump supporters could get more vehemently and passionately bat$#hit crazy than they already were, but I should have known Trump hinting at Cruz birtherism would do it.
Here’s Ann Coulter today:
NYT: Cruz was born outside the U.S. to 1 American parent: "Under the Constitution this makes him a 'natural born citizen.'” Absolutely false
— Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) January 6, 2016
Same lawyers who said anchor babies are in the Constitution now tell us being born outside U.S to 1 American parent = natural born citizen.
— Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) January 6, 2016
But as some are pointing out on Twitter, that’s not what she said in 2013:
TED CRUZ CAN RUN FOR PRESIDENT! I worried on @seanhannity @ his Calgary birth, But his mother was a US citizen, so he was born a citizen.
— Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) February 14, 2013
Still, other Trump supporters are running to her defense, like the illustrious A.J. Delgado:
Never in @AnnCoulter's tweets did she say Cruz is ineligible. She said NYT (!) was wrong for declaring he DEF is eligible "under Const."

Am I the only one capable of reading?

What Coulter was saying is NYT's "he DEF qualifies under Const" was wrong bc, the truth is, no one knows the true def/it isn't settled law.
— A.J. Delgado (@AJDelgado13) January 6, 2016
So, yes, the NYT is wrong and, no, Coulter never said today that Cruz is ineligible (nor did Trump). Sorry to ruin your gloating moment!

@DavidJMatza Even IF she were to say that, why would that be a contradiction? To have changed her mind once she researched it further??
— A.J. Delgado (@AJDelgado13) January 6, 2016
I dunno. Coulter makes it very clear she doesn’t think Cruz is a naturally born citizen, thus not eligible:
.@SenTedCruz gave a good answer on immigration. Too bad he's not a natural born citizen!

Now usually, in the world of reality and logic and reason and stuff, saying one thing and then saying the opposite means you’re contradicting yourself. But I guess I’m not as smart and classy and as A.J. Delgado and all the other Trump supporters.
