Ann Coulter did not hold back when talking about Roger Ailes on this weeks episode of Powerhouse Politics podcast.

Coulter, who this week published her book, In Trump We Trust, blasted the former CEO of Fox News, who she suspects might be behind Trumps latest immigration plan.

[Trump] seems to be getting contradictory advice. Ive seen these rumors hes now being advised by Roger Ailes, the former head of the Marco Rubio super PAC known as Fox News. Suddenly hes sounding like Rubio, said Coulter.

He was using all the clichs from the Gang of Eight bill, she continued. I dont know who hes getting it from, but the idea that his base is not going to mind is nonsense. And the idea that it helps him with anyone is nonsense.

Speaking with ABC News Chief White House Correspondent Jonathan Karl and ABC News Political Director Rick Klein, Coulter explained her frustration with the latest shifts in Trumps immigration plan.

I am trying to encourage Donald Trump to dump whomever the moron is who told him Americans are staying up at night worried about how people who broke our laws entering, broke our laws staying here, broke our laws taking jobs, how comfortable they are, Coulter said.

We have to take care of Americans first. And thats what [Trump] should be saying, not going back and saying one thing in his speech and then using the crazy Gang of Eight nonsense when hes talking to [Fox News host Sean] Hannity, she explained. Maybe its just something in the air at Fox News?

In response to whether she heard Ailes voice in Trumps new immigration plan, Coulter admitted, I never believed it. I thought it was all nonsense you mainstream media reporters were sending out until that stupid talking point. But I dont know who it is. I want to find out who it is and make sure that person is never allowed in the same room with Donald Trump.

Despite her criticisms of the Republican nominee, Coulter remains a loyal Trump supporter. I can criticize my guy and still support him, Coulter said. Since the convention, since his speech at the convention, he has not made any mistakes until now.

The media just makes stuff up, reinterprets his words, doesnt show people what he says, lies about him, she added. Hes been magnificent in every speech since the convention. And I think he should just keep doing that.

Also joining this weeks Powerhouse Politics podcast are political consultant Peter Schweizer and Republican television personality Montel Williams.

Schweizer discussed his new book, Clinton Cash, in which he follows the money to see if theres a causal relationship between Clinton Foundation donors and access to the secretary of state.

Meanwhile, Williams admitted that he will be voting for Hillary Clinton in the upcoming election after having supported John Kasich in the Republican primary. The longtime conservative Republican criticized Trumps recent outreach to African-American voters, which he described as a false invitation.

Ann Coulter Criticizes Donald Trump's Immigration Plan ...

On Tuesday, conservative provocateur Ann Coulter released herlatest book an ode to Donald Trump titled "In Trump We Trust: E Pluribus Awesome!" (Yes, that's the real title.)

That same day, Trump did the one thing Coulter wrote in her bookcannot be forgiven.

"Until the bleeding has stopped, there's nothing Trump can do that won't be forgiven," she wrote. "Except change his immigration policies."

Trump has now essentially changed his immigration policies, telling Sean Hannity in a town hall taped the very day Coulter's book hit the shelvesthat he's open to "softening" his position on illegal immigrants who have contributed to society. In further town hall remarks airing Wednesday night, Trump said that he didn't favor citizenship for immigrants living illegally in the country but thathe would "work with them" on a plan that would include "back taxes."

Coulter isn't happy.

On Twitter late Wednesday, she noted how similar Trump's rhetoric sounded to those who favor a path to legal status for undocumented immigrants.

She tweeted incredulously about Trump saying his proposal wasn't "amnesty."

And she wasn't happy about Trump's comment that deporting illegal immigrants who have been here for many years would be "very hard."

"I've had very strong people come up to me really great, great people come up to me and they've said, 'Mr. Trump, I love you, but to take a person who's been here for 15 or 20 years and throw them and their family out, it's so tough, Mr. Trump,'" he told Hannity. "I have it all the time. It's a very, very hard thing."

So here is Coulter, having just published a book making the case that we need Trump at this point in our history that there's only one thing he could do that would be a deal-breaker. And immediatelyhe does that thing.

We have yet to see how big a backlash there will be on the right against Trump's new immigration policy in large partbecause he hasn't laid it out in detail, and we're still left to parse exactly what his position is. But it's clear he's moving in a direction that folks like Coulter won't like. Coulter tried to play his comments offbefore Wednesday night, but now hehas apparently gone too far.

Let this be a reminder to anyonewho feels strongly about very conservative policy ideals: For Trump, self-described master negotiator, it appears just about everything is negotiable.

Ann Coulters Donald Trump hagiography was very poorly timed ...

In her new book In Trump We Trust, Ann Coulter attempts to talk America into supporting the Republican presidential nomineein her own words, the great orange hope. She also attempts to answer for his past mistakes, including when he mocked New York Times reporter Serge Kovaleski, who has a musculoskeletal disorder.

Coulter, in a chapter entitled Disabled Reporter Joins Media Effort to Create More Disabled Americans, writes that Trump wasnt making fun of Kovaleskis disorder; he was just doing an impression of a standard retard:

Trump denied knowing that Serge was disabled, and demanded an apology, saying that anyone could see his imitation was of a flustered, frightened reporter, not a disabled person. Its true that Trump was not mimicking any mannerisms that Serge has. He doesnt jerk around or flail his arms. Hes not retarded. He sits calmly, but if you look at his wrists, youll see they are curved in. Thats not the imitation Trump was doinghe was doing a standard retard, waving his arms and sounding stupid: Ahhh, I dont know what I saidahhh, I dont remember! Hes going, Ahhh, I dont remember, maybe thats what I said!

Thanks for the clarification, Ann.

Ann Coulter revealed her sense of disgust with Donald Trump's latest comments on immigration in which he suggested an openness to changing his hard-line stance on illegal immigration.

Speaking to Fox News' Sean Hannity in a town hall event broadcast Wednesday night, Trump floated multiple ideas for the audience's reaction, including one in which undocumented immigrants would pay "back taxes" but added, "there's no amnesty, but we work with them." Trump recounted meeting with "very strong people" who have told him "it's so tough" to throw out people who have been in the country for 15 to 20 years.

"It's a very, very hard thing," Trump conceded.

In a series of tweets late Wednesday and early Thursday, Coulter offered her thoughts, suggesting that Trump's latest remarks showed an openness to the same immigration platforms championed by his GOP primary rivals.

"Well, if it's 'hard,' then nevermind," Coulter tweeted sarcastically in response to that comment.

Coulter then retweeted an image of Trump's signature Make America Great Again hat with the words "THEY WILL PAY BACK TAXES."

In her final tweet of the night, Coulter retweeted a post "Muslim [collecting] 4 years of welfare in Maine while becoming radicalized & joined ISIS!"

"It's 'hard' to deport someone who's been here FOUR YEARS!" Coulter wrote.

The conservative commentator, in the midst of a book tour for "In Trump We Trust: E Pluribus Awesome!" that included a launch party hosted by Breitbart News on Wednesday night, threatened earlier this week to abandon her efforts if Trump is softening his stance on immigration.

Coulter mocks Trump's immigration muddle - POLITICO

Conservative author and Donald Trump supporter Ann Coulter isn't giving up on her candidate yet, even as he appears to be shifting on an issue most dear to her.

Trump is now open to possibly "softening" his hardline stance on illegal immigration, and the candidate said Wednesday night on Fox News that he would consider letting many illegal immigrants remain in the country, instead of deporting them all.

Immigration has been a cornerstone of Trump's campaign since its launch last year, starting with his promise to "build a wall" on the Mexican border and deport all illegal immigrants.

In an interview earlier that same day with the Washington Examiner, Coulter, whose own stance on immigration inspired Trump's controversial views on it, said it's not worrying her.

"It mostly worries me rhetorically ... I mean, what to do with the illegals already here was never really a big part of it," she said. "We're getting a wall. We're definitely getting a wall. That's the one thing we know about a Trump presidency."

Coulter, author of the new book In Trump We Trust: E Pluribus Awesome!, said Trump still offers more than any of the other Republicans had.

"I don't think it is a change in policy," she said of Trump. "The policy is anyone who's here illegally is here illegally, does not have the right to be here. We'll decide whether it's in our interest to let them stay or not. Perhaps it is in our interest to let some of them stay."
