Vivek Ramaswamy has been accused of employing a racist dog whistle by using former UN Ambassador Nikki Haleys maiden name on his website.

Alyssa Farah Griffin, once the director of strategic communications in Donald Trumps White House and now a TV pundit, wrote on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter: Of course, Vivek is referring to Nikki Haley by her maiden name Namrata Randhawa on his website.

Reminder: Nikki is her name on her birth certificate & this is a dog whistle. Crazy to see it coming from a fellow Indian American, she added.

Ms Haley was born Nimarata Nikki Randhawa to immigrant parents who were Sikhs from Punjab, one of the northernmost states in India. She married Michael Haley in 1996.

So hypocritical given that he doesn't want to engage in identity politics or be a victim himself

This is a guy who is adamantly against being a brown voice and will shame names. No different than the racism that Bobby Jindal received.

But he is super racist so they don't care. Like the only person who has real linkks to Soros. They don't care about him. Because he complains about black people and say that racism doesn't exist. Both of them are very anti-Black.

These people would deadname every last one of my trans friends.

If they can't be bothered, then maybe we shouldn't, either, as a reminder of their own humanity and validity as a person able to assert their own identity.

Nimrata, Rafael, Richard, Willard, Piyush, Cara, John Ellis, Newton...

Just rattle off every last one of their birth certificate names and refuse to call them anything else. Birth certificates are so damn important to these people, let's make it stick, and give them exactly what they ask for.

Hoist them on the highest petards.

No, he only seemed concerned with a candidate being born outside of the US when it was Obama.

It's pretty rich to see someone that was the director of strategic communications for Trump accuse SOMEONE else or using a racist dogwhistle. Pot, meet kettle, holy hell.

Doubly so when you realize Vivek is just reading from the Trump Troll playbook.

Likely. No need for Trump to have a more "normal" Republican around to contrast him anymore, their voters don't care. And they get to pretend they care about minorities to boot.

Don't worry, Starks. I'm more interested in seeing when and how hard he'll flame the fuck out as the months drag on.
