Ann Coulter trolls for Trump in Hollywood

A recent Hollywood Reporter story on Friends of Abe (a secretive group for Hollywood right-wingers, both famous and not) noted that Coulter has been making the rounds in Hollywood preaching the Trump gospel. This has generally involved her promoting his positions on illegal immigration. Recently, she has done so at dinner events with Clint Eastwood (a Republican whose top political issue is being incredibly anti-war), as well as dozens of others in the film industry.

Coulter’s more private advocacy also includes anything as simple as emailing clips around to like-minded, politically engaged friends in Los Angeles, encouraging them to come out for Trump. She has shared her enthusiasm for his 2016 White House run with other members of Friends of Abe. The organization — which includes actors Kelsey Grammer, Patricia Heaton, Jon Voight (who officially endorsed Trump last week), Gary Sinise, and Eastwood — does not endorse candidates, but it did host Trump at a sold-out, invite-only dinner at Los Angeles’s Luxe Sunset Boulevard Hotel last July. (The invitation identified the real-estate mogul as the “very definition of American success.”)

FOA has been described as a “stealth right-wing group” that is “influential in conservative circles,” and as operating under “the same PR rules as Fight Club.”
