rump 'coyote' remark confuses Twitter, including Georgia state Democrat
Many on Twitter thought Trump was talking about an actual coyote, not a human smuggler

When President Trump suggested at Thursday's presidential debate that the more than 500 migrant children unable to be reunited with their parents were brought to the border by "coyotes," many on social media were left confused.
Trump supporters pounced on the mistake, mocking liberals who weren't up-to-date on border-area lingo.
Many thought the president was talking about actual animals bringing children across the border -- rather than human smugglers, for whom "coyotes" is a slang term.
"This explains why Joe is higher in some polls," one Trump supporter wrote. "his voters are so dense as to believe immigrant children are carried across the border by wild animals...will someone please explain to them that coyotes are human smugglers who themselves are human (well...sub-human) but not this."
