Coulter: Trump's Softening on Immigration Sounds Like Consultants

Donald Trump supporter Ann Coulter thinks it’s a "mistake" for the GOP nominee to moderate his stance on deporting illegal immigrants.

In an interview Tuesday on MSNBC's "Hardball With Chris Matthews," the outspoken pundit, whose new book is called "In Trump We Trust," said Trump's remarks indicating he's softening on the issue sounded to her like "tired talking points."

The comments "sounded very consultant to me," she said, adding: "This could be the shortest book tour ever if he’s really softening his position on immigration."

But, she insisted, "I don’t think he is" softening.

"I think this is a mistake," she said. "It sounds like it’s coming from consultants… I’ve thought he’s made other mistakes, and I’ve given him constructive criticism when I think he makes a mistake. I think this is a mistake."
