    Pretty sure a 3rd grader could figure out that “riggers” sounds a whole lot like a really naughty word for black people, which is about where he’s at mentally.

      It’s exactly what a 3rd grader would do…

      Say a word that sounds real close to a word they can’t say. Then when called out say that it’s not the same word and no one can be mad they said it.

      So yeah, probably intentional

      Regardless of whether he intended the visual/spelling similarity, I guarantee that his image of election riggers is exactly as racially coded as his image of “urban” Americans.

      You aren’t far off in your assessment of Trump’s mental maturity. He by his own admission has the temperament of a first grader
