In a Monday evening interview with Sean Hannity on Fox News, conservative pundit Ann Coulter blasted the 2016 GOP presidential field, calling the candidates apart from Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker “idiots” and stating her belief that only Walker or 2012 GOP nominee Mitt Romney can beat Hillary in a general election.

Here’s how the exchange went down:

HANNITY: Who do you like for president?

COULTER: I would like Mitt Romney with Scott Walker as his vice president.

HANNITY: Mitt Romney’s not running. Keep going.

COULTER: I think he’s going to jump back in.

HANNITY: He not going to jump back in.

COULTER: I think he’s going to jump back in when people realize — the only possible candidate who isn’t a joke right now is Scott Walker, and I would rather have Mitt Romney answering questions about the fed and trade with China, and you’ll see. Ann’s going to be right. You’ll apologize.

Pushed by Hannity to clarify her thinking, Coulter again promoted Romney as her first choice for the 2016 nominee, calling him “not only the most articulate but the conservative candidate we ever had”:

COULTER: I think Republican primary voters will realize, oh my gosh, we were lied to by idiots who said they were speaking on our behalf. Mitt Romney was not only the most articulate but the conservative candidate we ever had. I love Scott Walker, but I would really prefer for him to be Mitt Romney’s vice president for a few years.

Hannity accused Coulter of being “rigid” but the pundit defended herself, stating, “I’m sick of fighting for losing causes. If it’s not Scott Walker or Mitt Romney, I think we lose and welcome President Hillary.”
