If you haven’t ever heard of Ann Coulter, you might want to count your blessings and stop reading now.

For the more thick-skinned out there, Coulter is essentially the Katie Hopkins of America.

Just like angry, mean Hopkins, Coulter seems to be on a personal crusade to become the most hated woman in her country - and by the looks of things, she’s succeeding.

She is one of Donald Trump's most vocal supporters and has published a book called In Trump We Trust: E Pluribus Awesome! where she defends him with sentences such as: "Trump is like a Shakespearean ‘fool’: he seems crass because he speaks the truth.”

But that's by no means one of the worst things she's ever said. For anyone who wants to know who exactly is this woman who has offended countless of people and sparked racist hashtags, keep reading.

'Demonic Liberals and Trump'

Coulter is the author of 10 political bestsellers, with titles such as How To Talk To A Liberal (If You Must) and Demonic: How the Liberal is Endangering America.

She started out practising law in New York, and is now the legal correspondent for conservative political site Human Events, but spends much of her time appearing on TV shows and writing messages to her 660,000 Twitter followers.

On Muslims

This week, Coulter called the father of slain soldier Humayun Khan a “snarling Muslim” for his speech at the Democratic National Convention.
