For a change, right-wing pundit Ann Coulter had trouble getting a word in edgewise.

Coulter rampaged through "The View" Friday, intentionally mispronouncing the word "adios" while defending her controversial immigration views to a Nicaraguan-born panelist, calling co-host Raven-Symon a hypocrite for her recent racist comments, and expressing enthusiastic support for GOP front-runner Donald Trump.

But the hosts of the ABC talk show fought back.

The discussion quickly grew tense when they began grilling Coulter who appeared on the show to promote her new book, "Adios America!: The Left's Plan to Turn Our Country Into a Third-World Hellhole" on her unyielding views on undocumented immigrants.

"We're bringing in millions and millions of people from very poor cultures, from very backwards cultures," the sharp-tongued author said of the United States' post-1965 immigration policies. "We don't need to be importing other countries' poor people."

Co-host Ana Navarro, whose family emigrated from Nicaragua in 1980, challenged Coulter to defend her own family's immigration story.

"I'm descended from settlers, not from immigrants," the 53-year-old pundit replied. "I'm living in America, which was created by settlers, not by immigrants."

Indian-born panelist Padma Lakshmi argued that Coulter was generalizing, mentioning that her own mother immigrated to the U.S. in the 1970s to work as a nurse.

"Whenever people talk about the immigrants we like, like your mother, they cite the immigrants that aren't the majority of immigrants coming in," Coulter fired back. "So fine, OK, if they're going to be doctors. But we have a majority of immigrants on welfare."

Co-host Raven-Symon, who apologized Sunday for saying she would never hire someone with a "ghetto" name like "Watermelondrea," stewed quietly for much of the gabfest and when she finally piped up to accuse Coulter of mudslinging, the blond-haired commentator swiftly slung back.

"Well, I'm at least talking about policy," Coulter said. "You have a position on what people's names should be. Watermelondrea I mean, you'll insult people for their names."

The pundit's least controversial comments came when she praised the self-funded billionaire candidate Trump for taking on "the political class and the donor class."

"He's fantastic," she gushed. "He's saying things that people have been dying for someone to say, but they won't."

"I love his hair," she added.

Ann Coulter Articles - Political Columnist & Commentator

Conservative pundit Ann Coulter isn't going to let Donald Trump take all the credit for hisinfamous "Mexican rapists" remarks.

In a sit-down interview at the Politicon conference inLos Angeles Saturday shared by Truthdig, Coulter told conservative comedian and TV host Michael Loftus that her latest bookwas the impetus behind the leading GOP presidential candidate's comments.

"Donald Trump read it, so you can understand everything that's happening over the next year if you read it," she said ofAdios, America: The Lefts Plan to Turn Our Country Into a Third World Hellhole, in an exchange caught on videoby Truthdig'sKasia Anderson."That's where he got that spicy stuff on Mexican rapists."

That "spicy stuff" refers to Trump's claim in his June speech declaring his candidacy that"When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best. ...They're rapists."

Later in the interview, Coulter asserted that if Trump loses the election she'll be forced to make a career change.

I trust Americans to do the right thing on everything, but if we dont stop our current immigration policy, there will be no point to what I do," she said. "No point to Fox News, no point to writing political books. If I ever write another book, unless Trump gets elected, it will be a cookbook.

In 2013, Paul Ryandeclared, Iwill debate anybody who tries to suggest that these ideas that are moving through Congress [the Gang of Eight plan] are amnesty. That pledge is still featured on hiswebsiteto this day.

Youve got to get a call into his office and tell him Ill debate him, Coulter told Howie Carr. Seriously, put in a call to his office. Well do it on your radio [show].

Coulter suggested she wouldnt have a hard time taking on Ryan.Did anybody else see his debate with Biden? sheasked.

Indeed, Paul Ryan became the subject of ridicule after his 2012 Vice Presidential debate with Joe Biden. AsThe Guardianwroteatthe time, Joe Bidens alpha-male display leaves Paul Ryan overwhelmed in VP debateOn more than one occasion, the Republican candidate visibly gulped.

Coulter suggested that Paul Ryans visible anxiety throughout his performance should disqualify him fromrunning for Speaker of the House. If youre losing a debate to Joe Biden, maybe you are not [the Republican Partys] best spokesman, shedeclared.

Coulter said that Ryan is not the only intellectual lightweight in the Republican Party. Sheargued that many Republican establishment pro-amnesty lawmakers are notparticularlyintelligent but have seen their careers propelled forward by media elites. Coulter cited Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) as examples.

[Kevin McCarthy is] a complete abject moron. Have you heard him talk? And what Ive noticed about our guys is that we do have a lot of smart guys. They all happen to be the ones that dont want the Republican party to commit suicide by continuing our current immigration policies. I mean, its [smart] guys [like] Rep. Dave Brat (R-VA). We have some smart guys and theyre the ones that were opposing Kevin McCarthy for perfectly sound policy reasons. I hate this stuff about the shut down caucus, and the Freedom Caucus no, the issue is immigration. This is the litmus test And the smart ones are all on the anti-immigration side, the stupid onesbeing promoted by the media because thats their left wing, anti-American agendaare the stupid ones they can push around like Kevin McCarthy, like Marco Rubio If theyre dumb, theyre pro-amnesty, theyre beloved by the media, so they get pushed forward, Oh, theyre the Young Guns and look at these smart guys. Why, gosh were so afraid for Democrats. They want to tinker with social security, but theyll pass amnesty and then the entire country is finished.

Kevin McCarthy is massively pro-amnesty, Coulter declared. Hes another one, like Marco Rubio, who went to some bush-league college on a football scholarship. We have really smart guys in our caucus: how about Dave [Brat] for Republican House leadership, sheasked.

Brat, who rose to national prominence after defeating former Majority Leader Eric Cantor, got his B.A. in Business, his Masters Degree in Divinity from Princeton Theological Seminary, and his Ph.D in economics from American University. He served as an economic consultant for the World Bank and was a professor of economics for 18 years.

Paul Ryan got a degree in economics and political science from Miami University in Ohio before immediately beginning his lifelong career in politics.

All of these young conservatives have been so promoted by the media, Coulter said. Kevin McCarthy, Eric Cantor, Paul RyanOh, the Young Guns. Theyre ridiculous. Theyre all pro-amnesty, theyre pro-mass immigration, and their big claim to fame is, Oh, were going to tinker around with some entitlement programs. Oh yeah, thats the road to victories, Republicans [Mickey Kauss] idea was, could someone introduce Paul Ryan to Rep. Renee Ellmers (R-NC)?.

Coulter continued to highlight the similarities between Paul Ryan and Marco Rubio. Carr cited a 2013piecefrom theNational Reviewwhich read, Ryan was a protg of strategist Cesar Conda Ryans ties to the pro-immigration mafia ran deep.'

Coulter told Carr that Rubio relies on the same pro-amnesty strategists as well. And now [Condas] ruining Marco Rubios career, shesaid. Conda was Rubiosformer Senate chief of staffand now serves as an adviser to Rubio. Mimicking an imagined exchange of Conda advising Rubio, Coulter continued, Oh, amnesty, the voters will love you, [Rubio]. Youll have this great op-ed in the Wall Street Journal.'

Whit Ayres, a master strategist of the plan to disenfranchise Republicanvoters through immigration, has been effusive about both politicians ability to deliver for donors.Ayres isRubios top presidential campaign pollster. He has made a living, in part, by demanding that the Republican Partypass large-scale immigration expansion bills favoredby Republican donorssuch asthe Gang of Eight billor, as TheWashington Postwrites,Ayreshasurg[ed] the GOP to adapt to the countrys rapidly changing demographics or risk irrelevancy within a few political cycles.Ayres also speaks highly of Paul Ryan,describinghim as one of the most effective messengers the Republican party has in the House If Paul Ryan talks, the House Republicans will listen.

The U.S. foreign-born population is currently at a record high of 42 million people.The Ayres-Rubio-Ryan strategy of increasing immigration at a time of record highs is aradicalbreak from past U.S. immigration policy.After the foreign-born share of population reached its last peak during the early part of the 20thcentury, immigration was reduced for nearly five straight decades to successfully assimilate past arrivals and grow wages.

Those immigration curbs were reversed, however, in 1965 because of a Sen. Ted Kennedy-supported immigration law whichlifted those immigration caps and opened immigration to predominantly poor and developing countries.AsBreitbart Newshas previouslyreported,between 1965 and 2015, immigration added new residents to the population at a one-to-one ratio withnet births to the preexisting population.But a recent study by Pew projects that unless our currentimmigration policy is changed, between 2015and 2065, immigration will outpace net U.S. births ata ratio of seven-to-one.

Marco Rubio and Paul Ryan would like the number of immigrants admitted to be even greater.Rubios immigration billwould have imported 7 times more green cards in the first decade of its implementation than did Ted Kennedys immigration bill in its first decade.

She came, she saw, she Coultered.

Conservative author and firebrand Ann Coulter was in town Monday to speak on "America Under Obama: How to Recover and Save Our Country" at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.

Coulter told a mostly friendly crowd at Roland Hayes Concert Hall that "anchor babies" aren't protected by the Constitution, that Mexican immigrants who are already here don't want their wages driven down by more coming in, and that what Coulter called "mass illegal immigration" is backed by billionaire George Soros and others who believe that "America's a bad country and deserves to be humbled."

During the question-and-answer segment of the talk, Coulter took one young woman to task who said, "You really need to stop attacking college students."

"C'mon, grow a pair, babycakes," Coulter responded.

The 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was ratified in 1868 to protect the rights of newly freed slaves, Coulter said, not so that babies born here to undocumented mothers could become citizens.

"It's not about illegals running across the border, dropping an anchor baby and saying, 'Haha, you didn't catch me,'" Coulter said.

She told the crowd, "We have our own poor people. We don't need to be bringing in more of them."

Pre-1970s, the United States screened immigrants better, and they wound up making more money and being better-educated than the average American, Coulter said.

We want immigrants who are "better than us, not the same as us and definitely not worse than us," she said. "A country has a right to choose its own citizens in the same way you can't force your way onto the New England Patriots."

UTC freshman Blake Kitterman, president of the Bradley County Young Democrats, said he didn't agree with Coulter's message, but "I think it's important that we hear people of all [opinions]."

Coulter praised Republic presidential contender Donald Trump during a question-and-answer session with the media. When Trump threw his hat into the ring, he said that "when Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some I assume are good people."

Trump has led the polls since entering the race, and Coulter thinks he can win the nomination.

"He's saying what all kinds of Americans have been begging their leaders to say," she said.

Coulter was invited to speak by the Scott L. Probasco Jr. Chair of Free Enterprises as part of the 2015 Burkett Miller Distinguished Lecture Series. A 15-minute response to Coulter's 45-minute talk was given by Michelle D. Deardorff, the head of UTC's political science department.

Among those who came to cheer on Coulter was Hamilton County District 7 Commissioner Sabrena Smedley, who represents East Brainerd.

"I always appreciate a candid speaker," said Smedley, who had Coulter sign her latest book, "Adios, America: The Left's Plan to Turn Our Country into a Third World Hellhole."
