Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday went after Nikki Haley while referring to her by her first name, Nimarata, in the latest example of Trump using racist dog whistles to attack his GOP presidential rival.

Haley is the daughter of Indian immigrants and was born Nimarata Nikki Randhawa. She took her husband Michael Haley’s last name after they married.

Trump misspelled Nimarata as “Nimrada” as he attacked her in a new post on his social media platform Truth Social.

    You don’t see many people talking about how Trump has a duck’s name. He’s named like a duck, rapes like a duck, hasn’t ever officially gone on the record to say he isn’t a duck… Just something to think about.
