It isn’t unusual for Ann Coulter to spew nonsense on Twitter.
However, the internet viciously turned on the conservative pundit after she seemingly tried to defend Alabama senatorial candidate Roy Moore by bringing up a totally unrelated sex scandal involving John F. Kennedy. We wish we were kidding.

As we previously reported, the controversial GOP candidate has been accused of sexual misconduct as he allegedly initiated a sexual encounter with a woman, named Leigh Corfman, back when she was only 14. Three other women have detailed similar encounters with Moore, all occurring “when they were between the ages of 16 and 18 and he was in his early 30s.”
In an attempt to distract from this scandal, Coulter brought up an allegation where a 49-year-old JFK seduced a 19-year-old White House intern, named Mimi Alford. Ann wrote:
Hey Dems! JFK had an extra marital affair with 19-year old Mimi Alford when he was 45 years old. https://t.co/E5l3ncflDG

We’re not sure how this is a “gotcha” moment. While an affair is certainly scandalous, the politician in question is long dead and not currently in a position of power. Not to mention, the tweet suggests that being outraged about sexual misconduct is a partisan issue.
Thankfully, Twitter has since clapped back at Coulter’s beyond ridiculous defense. Be sure to see the best reactions for yourself (below).
I, too, will now not vote for JFK. Let’s do this, Nixon. https://t.co/xF2mY1Flw6

Ann Coulter is of course correct — the next time JFK is on the ballot, his sexual misconduct should be considered by voters. https://t.co/7UVWB9K30h

Just to be clear: are you still out here trying to justify a then-32-year-old Roy Moore’s sexual predation against a 14-year-old? https://t.co/6auZoqJ5sS
