Donald Trumps dramatic rise to power exposed a breach within the Republican Party, Ann Coulter told a Palm Beach audience Friday.

An insular establishment of party insiders, out of touch with mainstream Republicans, is confronted by a new GOP on steroids, the conservative commentator and author said.

Its as if every other Republican was saying, No, Im too dignified, I will not take steroids. Then Trump came along and said, I will take the steroids. Im on your side. Trump didnt need the donors. He could run on our behalf.

Coulter is a part-time resident who has penned a dozen best-selling books, including her latest, In Trump We Trust. A Palm Beach Republican Club crowd of more than 150 people greeted her with a standing ovation at The Colony.

I never realized how much I hated my old Republican Party, she said. They care about their interests. They get ahead. They win.

During its first week in Washington, the new, fresh Trumpian party wasted no time fulfilling his campaign promises, Coulter said. Were going with the [Mexican border] wall [and] Muslim ban. Hes bringing jobs back.

Immigration is the most important issue facing the nation, said Coulter, who opposes amnesty for illegal immigrants.

President Trump on Friday

placed new restrictions on who can enter the United States, signing sweeping new orders that tighten the countrys refugee and visa policies suspending almost all refugee admissions for four months and indefinitely barring entry for some Syrians.

Coulter believes Trump is on the mark.

Trump says maybe we shouldnt be taking people whose religion teaches that we are infidels and they should kill us, she said. The rest of the world does not have a constitutional right to move to America. We can admit or not admit anyone we want.

The Democratic Party has conspired to pack the country with immigrants for its own political gain, and the media refuses to accurately report the issue, she said.

Why are Republicans helping? Republicans want campaign cash The rich want cheap maids, she said.

But working Americans, through their taxes, subsidize that cheap labor by furnishing food stamps, medical care and education for the immigrants, she said.

Immigration is everything, Coulter said. It isnt one little issue. Who votes and lives in this country is everything.

Trumps border wall with Mexico will be meaningless unless he deports the millions of people who are already here illegally, she said. Trump is the last chance to save the America we knew, Coulter said. Its the last train leaving the station.

Ann Coulter in Palm Beach: Trump leads a new GOP on 'steroids' - Palm Beach Daily News

We're introducing a new column today that looks at national issues from the conservative viewpoint.

It's a step to achieve more balance in the syndicated columnists we use on the Editorial page.

The Press-Republican has always welcomed opinions from all across the political spectrum. We firmly believe that an important part of a newspaper's job is to encourage input from the breadth of views represented by the residents of the North Country.

We don't turn Letters to the Editor away because they are too conservative or too liberal. We reject letters only if they could be libelous or if they contain hate language.

Hate language, of course, is a matter of judgment. Over the years, some readers have urged us to ban a few letter writers. But we try to give writers as much leeway as possible to express their thoughts.

When it comes to national columnists, we felt for years that we had a decent mix.

Byron York,chief political correspondent for The Washington Examiner, runs on Saturdays, writing from a conservative viewpoint.

Gene Lyons,Arkansas Times columnist and co-author of "The Hunting of the President," appears Sundays, writing on the opposite end of the political spectrum.

We use Kathleen Parker, who writes for the Washington Post, as our moderate. Although she was, at one point, paired as the conservative across from Eliot Spitzer in a CNN point-counterpoint show, her views have been embraced sometimes by the right, sometimes by the left.

We frequently use Georgie Anne Geyer, a foreign correspondent with 40 years of experience, to put international issues in perspective.

Dr. Alan Chartock, editor and publisher of the Legislative Gazette and CEO of public radio station WAMC in Albany, appears on Mondays, giving the state perspective.

But Chartock's views usually lean left, as do Cokie and Stephen Roberts, another column we have available from the syndicate service we use.

Newspapers can run only the columns they pay for, you see.Editor Lois Clermont has asked the service several times in the past six months to add another conservative to its "full service" package.

To even things up, we are introducing ultra-conservative Ann Coulter, who will move into the Saturday spot, allowing us to use York closer to when his columns are released.

Coulter is well known as a voice for the right. She is legal correspondent for Human Events andauthor of 11 New York Times best-sellers, including "Adios, America, Never Trust a Liberal Over Three" and "Demonic: How the Liberal is Endangering America."

She has been a guest on many TV shows, including "The Today Show," "Good Morning America" and "The O'Reilly Factor."

Her viewpoints are sure to stir up conversation, challenge ideas and expand perspectives.

And that is what a good editorial page is all about.

But none of us can, because were too busy working so we can afford to pay for the health care of 22 million poor, entitled or irresponsible people under Obamacare.

SIGN UP FOR OUR NEWSLETTER

Just yesterday, for example, in addition to working, I had to spend an hour on top of days and days last month figuring out which few remaining clinics provide mammograms under my brand-new, now third Obamacare insurance plan.

My original plan was made illegal by Obamacare, and the next two plans fully approved under Obamacare went bankrupt and were shut down by state and federal regulators.

Now I just have to pray I dont get cancer or break a bone before Obamacare is repealed because, even at $700 a month with a gigantic deductible, there is NO PLAN on the individual market accepted by the two premier hospitals in my area for cancer or broken bones.

Those $700 premiums go to pay for the pregnancies and dental care of welfare recipients and immigrants, not cancer treatment for Ann.

Democrats love to get on their high horses about the wonderful things Obamacare has done for the uninsured. They should be asked why they refuse to live under it.

After they spend 800 hours changing insurance plans every year, ending up with increasingly expensive and increasingly useless plans all so that their premiums can pay for the poor Ill be fascinated to hear about their love for the downtrodden.

Same with Republicans who are, once again, being bamboozled by lobbyists, to the detriment of their taxpaying constituents who dont have time or money to fly to Washington and tell them our hard-luck stories.

Insurance lobbyists have somehow convinced politicians, who have very little experience in the private sector, that health insurance is wildly different from every other product even car insurance and homeowners insurance because of its need for a large pool of enrollees.

Everyone talks about the enrollment problem as if this is a bug unique to the health insurance industry. What product, do they imagine, does not need lots of customers?

How could restaurants afford those chefs, fresh flowers, industrial kitchens, one hundred sets of plates, napkins and silverware and a staff of waiters without customers? AHHHH! THEYLL GO OUT OF BUSINESS!!! THE MODEL DOESNT WORK WITHOUT LOTS OF PARTICIPANTS! CONGRESS MUST GET INVOLVED.

Publishers couldnt have editors, proofreaders, lawyers, paper plants and marketing departments unless theres a large pool of book buyers. Pipe manufacturers couldnt have hundreds of employees, huge machines and factories unless you get the idea.

Why is having customers treated like some freakish need of this one industry?

People are a lot less interested in buying hotel rooms, restaurant meals and pipes than they are in buying health insurance. Everyone knows someone who has died of cancer or had some other major medical problem, and most people are not insane.

Even with the hell of Obamacare, requiring hundreds of hours of work to research, sign up for, be thrown off of, then sign up for a different, ever-more-expensive plan, year after year the long-suffering taxpayer is doing all that in order to maintain some form of health insurance.

So apparently, no matter how awful you make it, this is a product Americans are desperate to buy!

Republicans all say they want to save the so-called good parts of Obamacare. Because who knows better what the American consumer wants than a member of Congress!

I keep imagining Congress designing a comprehensive hotel reform bill, promising to save the popular parts: BUT PEOPLE LIKE HAVING TVS IN THEIR HOTEL ROOMS! How could we ever get TVs in hotel rooms without Congress writing a law?

It turns out, people running a business have an uncanny ability to figure out whats popular with their customers.

Any popular features of Obamacare obviously, manifestly, inevitably will be preserved by the free market. If parents like keeping their useless millennial kids on their plans, guess what? Any insurance company forced to compete with other insurance companies WILL OFFER THAT.

As for covering people with pre-existing conditions there are pre-existing conditions and pre-existing conditions. Does this mean the unfortunate few with some exorbitantly expensive medical problem? Or does it mean people who have a pre-existing condition because they waited to be diagnosed with cancer before buying insurance?

The first category of people was dealt a bad hand. Eventually, they will be taken care of by the market when excess coverage policies are common and reinsurance companies pop up to cover the primary insurance companies.

Until then, a separate program can pay for the unlucky. Thats not a reason to wreck the health insurance market for everyone else. There arent 22 million people with horrifyingly expensive medical conditions. Theyre being used as the baby seals to sell subsidized health care for the irresponsible.

The second category is a lot less sympathetic, which is precisely why the two cases are always conflated. You cant buy flood insurance after your house has already floated away.

But we wont let people die in the streets, so as Trump said at the very first GOP debate they will be dealt with through a different system. They probably cant go to Sloan Kettering, but then again, neither can I. Right now, my $700 a month pays forthemto go to Sloan Kettering.

Both cases are of zero practical importance to the vast majority of people who just want to buy health insurance on the free market, rather than what were doing now, which is giving shiftless layabouts and irresponsible screw-offs an unlimited health care credit card paid for through our insurance premiums.

Wed come to Washington and tell you that, but were working to pay for the pediatric dental care of illegal aliens.

Ann Coulter: Can I Be the Poster Child Against Obamacare? - Breitbart News

Pink hats were the signature clothing at the Womens March on Washington, but rightwing pundit Ann Coulter saw something more sinister behind them: brownshirts.

Coulter was referring to the Nazi paramilitary group, also known as the SA. Serving the party, the stormtroopers carried out vicious attacks on political rivals, Jews and other minorities before and after Adolf Hitlers rise to power.

Coulter, a vehement supporter of President Donald Trump, has gotten into trouble before when talking about Nazis. Back in November, she faced a barrage of criticism after a tweet that seemed to defend the American Nazi Party on charges of violence. And in January, she was accused of dog-whistling at white supremacists, when she tweeted 14. She said that it indicated to the number of days until President Trump was inaugurated. Others alleged it was a reference to a white power slogan.
