And his tax returns.

And his healthcare plan. His big beautiful healthcare plan that is much better than Obamacare.

And after he pays his contractors.

“Riggers,” of course, is just a letter away from a heinous slur.

Thanks for the clarification, Huff.

Is someone participating in the gig economy a gigger?

Is someone who believes in the existence of the Higgs boson a higger?

Is someone who does Scottish dancing a jigger?

Is someone who makes toupees a wigger?

That said, context is everything. Any of those could easily be used to dog whistle racist slurs when used in the (in)appropriate context.

And we all know there was fraud in the 2020 elections — not only did a few people vote GOP under the name of a dead relative, but there was an entire set of individuals who pretended to be electors to declare for the GOP when they didn’t actually win a state.

100% proof of fraud. Nothing that would have changed the election outcome though.

[On this coming Friday] Massive information and 100% evidence will be made available during the Corrupt Trials started by our Political Opponent…

Friday

Judge: Does the defense have anything to add to today's record?

Trump's legal counsel: No we do not your Honor.

Judge: Then the Court is adjourned until Monday at eleven o'clock in the morning.

Donald Trump won more votes than Hillary Clinton in the 2020 election. That's a fact. Check mate communists!

Irrefutable, just like the other few dozen times such credible evidence was dismissed in as many state cases already.

The real secret he's been keeping from us with his iron will? Mexico paid for his hair transplant.
