David Duke: Controversial pundit tweets ‘how many fucking Jews do these people
think there are in the United States?’ after several candidates in
Republican debate stress improved U.S. ties with Israel.
Controversial conservative pundit Ann Coulter posted a series
of arguably anti-Jewish tweets at the tail end of Wednesday night’s
Republican debate, accusing the candidates of pandering to Jewish
voters, including one posing the hypothetical question of: “How many
fucking Jews do these people think there are in the United States?”
Coulter, who has 660,000 Twitter followers, was reacting to the
frequent mentions of Israel made by participants in the second televised
Republican debate held Wednesday at the Ronald Reagan Library in
California.
She first tweeted criticism of former Arkansas Governor Mike
Huckabee, Florida Senator Marco Rubio and New Jersey Governor Chris
Christie’s support for Israel when answering the question “What will
AMERICA [emphasis her’s] look like after you are president?”, asking
“How many fucking Jews do these people think there are in the United
States?” She also wrote: “Good Grief, Huckabee is running for prime
minister of Israel.”

Coulter, who has expressed support for the candidacy of Donald Trump, then proceeded to posit that the candidates may just be trying to “suck up to the Evangelicals.”
Coulter concluded her Twitter-storm by offering “How to get applause
from GOP donors: 1) Pledge to start a war 2) Talk about job creators 3)
Denounce abortion 4) Cite Reagan 5) Cite Israel.”
Coulter has previously come under fire for alleged anti-Semitism. In a
2007 interview on CNBC’s “The Big Idea,” Coulter told Jewish host Donny
Deutsch that she wants her dream America to be completely Christian,
and that she wanted “Jews to be perfected, as they say,” referring to
Jews being converted to Christianity.
To answer Coulter’s question, up to 7 million Jews live in the United States.
