Ann Coulter had a tough time over the weekend.
She went on a Twitter tantrum after her seat on a Delta flight that she pre-booked was given away to another passenger. The airline said she was moved from the aisle seat in an exit row to a window seat in the same row.
But Coulter was upset with the move, prompting a string of angry tweets which have continued for nearly two days.
Coulter didn’t just attack Delta — she also attacked the other passenger, who was sitting in the seat she was assigned to sit in. Coulter called her “dachshund-legged” and implied she’s an immigrant when she tweeted, “Immigrants take American jobs (& seats on @Delta).”
So why is our middle & working class suffering? NOT ROBOTS! Globalism & mass immigration. Immigrants take American jobs (& seats on @Delta). https://t.co/bsCYrW7boS

She also attacked Delta employees, calling them out for being in a union which isn’t even true.
All this led to Delta’s response Sunday evening that only added to the attention the dispute got on social media.
@AnnCoulter Additionally, your insults about our other customers and employees are unacceptable and unnecessary.

Many people applauded Delta for calling Coulter out on social media.
RuPaul’s Drag Race season 6 winner Bianca Del Rio was one of them.
Del Rio posted thanks to Delta for their response. She posted a picture of Coulter on her Instagram praising Delta and calling Coulter a “rotted c*nt” and a “miserable b*tch.” She also threw even more shade, pointing out that Coulter isn’t a Diamond Member – a status many of the Drag Race girls hold because they fly Delta so much to their gigs.
Coulter saw this on Instagram and commented: “Of course @thebiancadelrio is being very “’classy’ as always. Hate me as much as you can.”
Be careful what you wish for.
Next, Del Rio responded: “Yes, I am classy. FIRST classy!”
Put that in your tea and sip on it.
Delta refunded Coulter the $30 she had spent for the pre-booked seat. Regardless, she is angry and she is still tweeting about it.
BEWARE OF @DELTA REPUBLICANS. Texts from a flight attendant: It was political. @Delta still won’t give a reason. pic.twitter.com/Tcxp2DlPa0

Maybe we finally know who Bianca Del Rio has really been referring to all these years:
