Trump on Ann Coulter: 'I don't know her'

"I don't know her," President Donald Trump said at a press conference Friday, describing his relationship with the conservative commentator who has introduced him at rallies.

Asked Friday whether conservative media personalities influenced his policy on building a border wall, the president denied commentators like Coulter and Fox News' Sean Hannity pushed him to declare a national emergency to get a physical barrier on the southern border. The question came after Fox network figures and conservative commentators prodded the president to declare an emergency over the past few months and railed against him for ending the government shutdown without over $5 billion for the wall.

But Trump insisted Friday that the emergency declaration he had just issued was his own doing.

"They don't decide policy. In fact, if I went opposite — they have somebody, Ann Coulter, I don't know her. I hardly know her. I haven't spoken to her in way over a year. The press loved saying 'Ann Coulter.' Probably if I did speak to her, she'd be really nice. I just don't have the time to speak to her," Trump said.

2. "I haven't spoken to her in way over a year." If true, it makes his obsession with what she thinks

about him all the MORE pathetic.

His protestations about Ann Coulter are not those of a person who is truly indifferent to her.
