On Howard Stern, Trump Called 1996 Miss Universe An “Eating Machine”
So I guess it was an "accident" that the senator fat shamed him. Uh huh, yeah, right. I saw her tweet, which was an attempt to fat shame him. It goes both ways. Shame on her for talking like a fool and, yes, fat shaming him. (And shame on him for how he handled an overweight Miss Universe).

It seems from this video, Miss Universe was pretty happy with Mr. Trump. He seemed to want to help her loose the weight that she gained (in violation of her contract that she WILLINGLY signed after she won a beauty contest she WILLINGLY entered into) instead of having her terminated.

This is just mud slinging and bullying by women playing the woman card in order to get political points. It's pretty sickening IMO.



Poor, poor widdle Donny, people are saying baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad things about him and his Trumpettes think only he should be allowed to say baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad things about others.

A Trump supporter whining about mudslinging and bullying? Seriously? You guys have absolutely no sense of self-awareness, do you? Too, too funny.

Only 1 video, and no other proof that he called her anything else. It's just her word against his. She's Hillary's new BFF, and being used for a sob story. I didn't forget about Hillary calling Americans deplorable. How is that better than what trump allegedly did? And Machado is no saint. Her daughter's father is a drug cartel head, and machado allegedly drove a getaway car after a murder. Not exactly an image of angelic sainthood. And her defense is "everyone has a past"? Yes, they do, but not everyone's is that shady.

Since it's false that Hillary called Americans deplorable - she was explicitly referring to a very specific group of alt-right/white supremacists, I will have to assume the rest of your post is equally fact-free.

No, that's YOU saying that and babbling like a child.

I'm betting Trump can take anything thrown by a bunch of hypocritical fools on the hill.

Or else, he can simply try hiding his expanding waistline by dressing like Kim Jong-il....like Hillary does.

LIes.. the girl before she entered the contest stated she was starving herself , vomiting food and after she won and gained 70 lbs which isagainst the contract she signed they wanted to let the second runner up take the crown. Trump asked her if she wanted to keep the crown and she said she would work on her weight. Trump agreed . End of story. No bad names. The girl lied about not having eating problems but her own words then say she is lying now.

Do you really believe that 25% of this country is white supremacists?
