This week, Coulter has yet again thrust herself in the spotlight -- this time, for mocking the appearances of female Trump protesters.
In 2 separate tweets, Coulter shared images of women holding up anti-Trump signs with captions saying that "without fat girls, there would be no protests," and that the protesters "need Atkins," a well-known fad diet.

I guess marching around waving signs is some exercise, but they also need Atkins. pic.twitter.com/ZmQ62nh44n

At the time of writing, Coulter has yet to apologize for the tweets. We wouldn't hold our breath on that one.
