"In the very first days I tried to reach her and then I decided to stay out of it as I saw it blowing up," she told  Entertainment Tonight . "In time she will be fine. For me, it all just felt kind of sad."

Ann Coulter , Kevin D. Williamson ,  Sean Trende , and others have pushed back on the idea that the modern Republican Party is primarily built on racism. However, a further examination of what makes the modern parties, and more importantly, the modern p
