MAGA columnist Ann Coulter found out the hard way that President Donald Trump is a second-generation immigrant.

Following the president's State of the Union address on Tuesday, Coulter sought to slam the immigrant community and their families.

"That beautiful ending to Trump's SOTU address reminds me why we can't have a second-, third-, or fourth- generation immigrant as president," she wrote on X. "Love for our country has to be in your genes."

Coulter was quickly informed by X's Community Notes system about Trump's heritage.

"President Trump is a second generation immigrant through his Scottish-born mother and a third generation immigrant through his German-born paternal grandparents," context from readers said.

oops. White nationalism is a helluva drug.
