Ann Coulter says she won’t vote for Trump without border wall

Conservative commentator Ann Coulter said Wednesday that she won’t vote to reelect President Trump if no progress has been made on the U.S.-Mexico border wall by 2020.

In a podcast interview with The Daily Caller, Coulter blasted the Trump presidency, saying it will have been a “joke” without the wall.

“Why would you [vote for him again]?” she said. “To make sure, I don’t know, Ivanka [Trump] and Jared [Kushner] can make money? That seems to be the main point of the presidency at this point.”

Her comments come as Trump battles with lawmakers over legislation to fund the government through the end of the year.

Trump previously threatened a government shutdown if a spending bill did not include $5 billion to pay for the border wall, but the White House backed down from those demands on Tuesday.

Democratic and Republican leaders are currently in the process of hammering out a deal on a stopgap measure to fund the government through Feb. 8, though the details have not yet been announced.

Coulter, who wrote a book titled “In Trump We Trust: E Pluribus Awesome!” in 2016 before souring on the presidency, has criticized Trump for lack of action on immigration, including saying in August: “I’ve never seen such a bad dealmaker.”
