Alyssa Farah, who served as Trump's Director of Strategic Communications, accused her former boss of using a racial "bullhorn" with his rant against "riggers".
Yall know rigger is a real word right? Like, I work with a group of people explicitly called riggers. They rig stuff up. Use cranes, chain falls, shit like that?

Someone else said it and he repeated it, or someone else wrote the tweet. It was absolutely intended to be racist.

Trump is using a dogwhistle though.
Yeah it’s also a common term in the bdsm community for people who like tying people up. But he definitely isn’t referring to them.
Some people don’t get the benefit of the doubt when it comes to dog whistles.

It is probably something he heard somewhere and he liked how close it sounds.
