Ann Coulter caught a bad case of ridicule after tweeting out contradictory coronavirus 'facts'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Ann Coulter’s heyday of being considered worth listening to has long since passed. In recent years, her big play has been to take a far right, extremist view of the world and then attempt an even more incendiary verbal vomit to the public. The conservative angle on COVID-19 is that things are being overblown and that, even though the mortality rate for people older than 65 is frightening, we should probably be ready to sacrifice our older citizens in order to keep billionaires in billions. Well, Ann Coulter has news to own the libs! It turns out that according to Ann and this very nifty graph she has provided, “for people under 60, coronavirus is LESS dangerous than the seasonal flu.” So there. Let’s take a look at that graph, Ann.

Oh. On top of being a racist idiot, it turns out that Ann Coulter might not be able to read and definitely cannot understand how numbers work. As the graph very clearly shows—at least based on the numbers coming out of South Korea, one of the best test areas for this virus—with the exception of people under 30, the mortality rate is considerably higher for those suffering from COVID-19 versus people with the “seasonal flu.”

Better to be thought of as a fool than to open your mouth and prove it.

Coultergeist is so last decade...she is aging (aren't we all though?) and increasingly irrelevant...

There is always an undercurrent of right wing perverts who elevate a chosen female figurehead to fantasize about while masturbating to the "news" on Fox or their favorite webcast...then, they grow tired of them and discard them for the newest 20-something blonde with legs forever, skimpy skirts and up-shots through the glass desk on Fox News...

Palin was one.
Megyn Kelly was another.
Gretchen Carslon was the original.
But Ann?

You have always been a bean pole skinny nasty woman whose invective and hate speech made it impossible to see as anything but an external reflection of the hideousness of right wing ideology. The men of the over 65 Fox Hate Brigade have moved on from her...I think I may agree with them in practice, though definitely NOT in principle on this...it's time to simply ignore Coultergeist and while we're at it, Ingraham is also gone long-in-the-tooth in age, appearance and repetitive schtick as well!

4. The graph is crystal clear.

But when you're blind with rage and hatred, you can't see the obvious.

Just go away, Coulter-geist.

5. She's not proving it - its been established - she's reinforcing it. She's pretty dumb for someone ..
