Right-wing pundit Ann Coulter told Breitbart News editor-in-chief Alex Marlow said this morning that although they don’t believe that Russians hacked the Democratic National Committee and asserted that “even if they did it, who cares?”

Coulter joined Marlow on this morning’s episode of “Breitbart News Daily” to promote her new book, which argues that Trump’s election sent liberals into hysterics and turned them into conspiracy theorists. During the show, Coulter bemoaned Democrats who she says are trying to “nag us to death until we all agree that Russia hacked the DNC.” Special Counsel Robert Mueller has already indicted several Russian government hackers for attacking the Democratic Party and Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign, though the Russian government denies any involvement.

“There’s no evidence they did it. If they did it, who cares?” Coulter said. “If they did it, they certainly didn’t do it to help Trump. I mean, it’s preposterous.”

“I like the ‘who cares?’ question,” Marlow responded. “Hasn’t Russia always tried to do this? We just learned—it just broke on CNN, of all places, this morning—that the Russians also tried to hack conservative think tanks. So, no one cares about—that’s what they do. They’re the Russians.”

“It’s like saying, ‘That’s what they do, they’re the Canadians.’ They’re pikers compared to China, Israel and Mexico interfering with our elections all the time and moreover, we do it all day long to other countries.”

Coulter went on to slam billionaire philanthropist George Soros’ funding of liberal political groups, saying, “Payback’s a bitch.”
