Ann Coulter says she didn’t vote for Vivek Ramaswamy ‘because you’re an Indian’

Conservative author and commentator Ann Coulter recently told former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy that she would not back him for the GOP nomination because “you’re an Indian.”

Coulter, 62, made the shocking remark on a podcast Ramaswamy released Wednesday, on which the two spoke about nationalism and the basis of American identity.

“I agreed with many many things you said during — in fact, probably more than most other candidates — when you were running for president, but I still would not have voted for you, because you’re an Indian,” she said.

Coulter then doubled down by saying she would only vote for presidential candidates who are WASPs — White Anglo-Saxon Protestants.

“There is a core national identity that is the identity of the WASP,” she said, “and that doesn’t mean we can’t take anyone else in, a Sri Lankan, or a Japanese, or an Indian, but the core around which the nation’s values are formed is the WASP.”

Vivek thought it was funny when she insulted black people but then she turned around and insulted him also. LOL!

[antihero]

What does racism-denying Nikki Haley think of that comment?

[jp-uno]

He laughed at the American Black comment but got his wake up call right after. 😆😆😆

At Least she kept it 💯💯💯 with him.

[yseson_]

Mr racism "doesn't exist in America anymore" gets a face full of it

[hebrewsking]

She was insinuating that even Obama was better than you because of his mother being white when she said we never had a president in this country that did not have English blood.😂

[VictorGarcia-dtsw]

She’s unapologetic racist. At least she’s honest.

[waynepalmer]

Vivek actually thought he was one of them until the cold hard slap of white reality hit him in the face! Welcome to the real Amerikkka homie!

[LuckiLue]

Reality just hit him he thought they only disrespected black people 😭😭

[AR-djyw]

Vivek suffers from the "illusion of inclusion" as Dr Umar Johnson was a necessary slap in the face. Fantastic.

[fnln]

"an American black" this phase alone exposes her inner klanswoman. Who talks about people like this?

[mri]

“We’ll get back to that” She had more insults in store for him. 😊😊😊

[Madmax]

He laughed at a racist comment because he thought he was looked at differently and then got cooked right after 😂😂😂😂

[bpnkipw]

Foundational Black Americans stay on your minds daily

[vsGoliath]

My dude had his "leopards ate my face" moment live on camera. Absolutely beautiful. Welcome to conservative 'Murica!

[wander]

But I thought it was about merit with these people 😂

[gerryo]

Basically you're the safer minority but stay in your place.

[mirfarrokhsalek]

She has a disdain for his color and race in her eyes. How low is this guy :))

[mansoor]

Vivek still double tap dancing for conservatives. He got no self-respect.

[my.]

She was bold enough to speak what those who share her sentiments behind closed doors. Being articulate means learning vocabulary words and incorporating into everyday dialogue. Being articulate makes one seem intelligent but doesn’t mean they are.

[rosspimental]

Vivek’s smug smile sure disappeared quickly.
