A grifter is one who grifts, a verb that we define transitively as "to obtain (money) illicitly (as in a confidence game)" and intransitively as "to acquire money or property illicitly." A grafter is, similarly, one who grafts, but this word has a considerably broader meaning than does grift, with senses ranging from "to propagate (a plant) by grafting" to "to implant (living tissue) surgically." Graft may also mean "the acquisition of gain (such as money) in dishonest or questionable ways" and "to get (illicit gain) by graft," the definitions that are most relevant to the matter at hand.

Both work. Come correct next time.

Both words work.

Quote:

So while both words are concerned with illicit gains, and grift is thought to have evolved from graft, they have subtle differences in meaning. Grafter came into use earlier, dating to the middle of the 19th century, initially with the primary meaning of "thief."
Quote:

The grifter is a small-time confidence man, a carnival swindler, or thief of some sort or other. The grafter may be most of these things, but also may be someone who engages in the "political corruption" sense of the word graft (which we define as "the acquisition of money, position, or other profit by dishonest or questionable means, as by actual theft or by taking advantage of a public office or a position of trust or employment to obtain fees, perquisites, profits on contracts, or pay for work not done or service not performed").

They call him and any black man who votes republican an uncle Tom. It's an easy automatic default answer.
