Interesting piece by Coulter, my ass.

The half black girl at Yale struck a nerve, huh?

Was that in the piece? I wouldn't read anything by Coulter.
"I've never been quite sure what the point of a eunuch is, if truth be told. It seems to me they're only men with the useful bits cut off."
I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

No. 
Well the words "half black girls at Yale" are in the piece, but there aren't any actual girls at Yale being referred to or any actual fact or occurrence in the real world. 

As you wisely guessed by not reading - typical Coulter nonsense.
The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists.

Didn't know grandmothers were supposed to stay hawt.

Omg, a woman wears barely any makeup. How dare she?

If people can make fun of orange trump then they can make fun of pasty Hillary.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

It's different.  Donald sprays himself orange because he thinks it looks good.  Hillary looks that way because that's the way she looks.

Fine, then making fun of his balding (or hiding it) it's pot shots at appearance.

Mocking the National Combover is mocking his choice about how he deals with balding, not his appearance per se.

He pointedly does bizarre things with his hair.

Meanwhile, Hillary is someone who just had the biggest let down of her life. I'm pretty okay with her not getting all gussied up.

Yep. If he embraced his hair loss, I don't think anyone would bat an eye.

We'll agree to disagree.

I mean what evidence do you have otherwise? I think generally we don't say a lot about the general look of male politicians unless they are acting particularly vile.

You'll agree to disagree; Grab On and I will arrogantly parade our correct conclusion in your face.  Grab On more arrogantly than I.

You don't have a combover, do you?
