Ann Coulter is angry. This past Saturday, she was not allowed to fly in the seat with extra legroom that she had booked ahead of her flight. Based on his analysis of the incident, a Delta spokesman says that it seems Coulter ended up flying in a seat in the same row as the one that she had reserved.
Coulter’s response was to apparently jump on the bandwagon of railing against airlines that got its most recent jump-start after a doctor was knocked out and dragged out of a plane, and rage-tweet about the incident for what’s now days on end.
For instance, on Sunday, Coulter tweeted a mocking comparison of Delta’s airline staff training program to the infamous Stanford Prison Experiment, writing:
‘Airline crew training at
@Delta: Replicate Stanley Milgram’s prison experiment at Yale, inducing normal ppl to brutally torture fellow man.’

“Brutally torture fellow man”? Are you kidding? Coulter was asked to move from one seat to another seat, and this is how she responds? And it’s the leftists who are the snowflakes?
Well, Delta has now fired back at Coulter, posting a statement on Twitter reading:
‘We’re sorry you did not receive the preferred seat you paid for and will refund your $30. Additionally, your insults about our other customers and employees are unacceptable and unnecessary.’

Coulter’s insults against Delta employees include her tweet cited above, while her insults against Delta customers include a tweet reading:
‘Hey
@Delta, if it was so important for the dachshund-legged woman to take my seat, she should have BOOKED THE SEAT IN ADVANCE. Like I did.’

Coulter claims that a flight attendant who initially asked her to move out of her seat responded by simply saying “I don’t know” when asked why they were having Coulter move.
As many reveled in noting, the conservative thought leader’s weekend long tirade against Delta was sparked by a mix-up worth $30.
Following Delta’s tweets admonishing her to lay off, Coulter wrote on Twitter that she is “STILL WAITING FOR AN EXPLANATION FROM THE BRILLIANT, TALENTED, HARDWORKING STAFF AT @Delta.”

Someone get this woman some help.
Anyway, the Twittersphere was, of course, very much on Delta’s side. Check that out below.
Good for you, @Delta. @AnnCoulter is the worst. Now find family she photographed & shamed on Twitter. They deserve $$ for trauma.
