Firebrand conservative columnist Ann Coulter is probably one of the last people you’d expect to host a Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything) session. But in the midst of a tour promoting her latest book, she came through with one on Monday afternoon.

For those who’ve read our interview with her, you’ll already be familiar with the more substantive answers she gave the Reddit community in regards to her book topics, the future of the GOP, and the media.
