You need to be the type that finds racism in everything to assume that this statement had racist intent:

“They never went after those that Rigged the Election,” Trump wrote. “They only went after those that fought to find the RIGGERS!”

Only those with blinders on tight can't see the vile racism enjoyed/employed by Trump supporters. Not all of them are vile racists but those that aren't sure seem comfortable associating with them.

All for a New York slumlord, rapist and failed casino operator, it boggles my mind.

One of Donny’s former assistants, who knows exactly what he meant, disagrees with your willful ignorance.

I can't read "RIGGERS" without immediately imagining Scooby-Doo in a Klan hood pic.

I’m just getting a feeling that “riggers” is a stand-in for another word he’s DYING to use!

"RIGGERS" is one letter off from the word he desperately wants to use,

If he starts calling people "riggers," I give it a week before we have a Freudian slip of the n-word.

FYI, in Silicon Valley a Rigger is someone equipped to move heavy equipment, they bring necessary equipment (cranes, forklifts etc) and a rigging crew.


Knowing what Trump is, my money is on this being a racist taunt.
