controversial political pundit Ann Coulter is, of course, not staying silent on Election Day, and today appeared to cite a Nazi law in a pro-Trump tweet. Coulter, who has made a career out of right-wing trolling, tweeted on Tuesday morning that "if only people with at least 4 grandparents born in America were voting, Trump would win a 50-state landslide."
Many tweeters were quick to point out Coulter's assertion—which she did not back up with any statistics or studies—that plenty of multi-generation U.S. citizens would still never vote for Trump:
It's also important to note that Trump, his wife, and his children would be barred from voting under Coulter's requirements that would supposedly lead Trump to take it all:
Most of what Coulter utters into the universe is foul, but people were very quick to pick up on the fact that in this case, Coulter was suggesting voting requirements that closely resemble the way Hitler's regime defined who was and was not a Jew in Nazi Germany:
Under these laws, the Nazis used grandparents' identity to deny citizenship and rights to Jewish people beginning in 1935.
