NEW YORK, New York (Exclusive to The Adobo Chronicles® ) – It’s cliché, but the saying, ‘Birds of the same feather flock together’ does hold true, especially in politics.

Nowhere is this more evident than in the Republican party where self-proclaimed leaders and their believers or followers find delight in singing the same tune.

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump makes no secret about his disdain for Mexicans, calling them rapists, drug addicts and criminals and vowing to keep them out of the U.S. if he is elected president of the United States.

Conservative columnist Ann Coulter sings the same tune, and is probably even more vocal and blunt than Trump.  In a recent television interview, Coulter said: “I will bet you by the end of the weekend, more Americans will have been killed by Mexicans than by ISIS or by sharks.”

Today, Trump named Coulter as his vice presidential running mate. He made the announcement in an email to The Adobo Chronicles.

It is unconventional that a U.S. presidential aspirant would name his or her VP nominee even before he or she is officially proclaimed as the party’s nominee.

But nothing is conventional with Trump. And nothing is conventional either for Coulter.

As we mentioned, birds of the same feather flock together.

But whether or not  this flock wins this particular contest remains to be seen.
