Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump took to Twitter early Friday morning to go to war with his latest campaign nemesis: former Miss Universe Alicia Machado.
During the debate earlier this week, Democrat Hillary Clinton brought up Trump’s past weight-shaming comments about Machado, who was Miss Venezuela when Trump took over the Miss Universe beauty pageant in 1996. Machado, now a well-known actress in Latin America, says Trump once called her “fat,” “ugly” and “Miss Piggy,” among other things.
In tweets posted a little after 5 a.m. on Friday, Trump brought up reports indicating that Machado was once accused of driving a getaway car from a murder scene in Venezuela. (Earlier this week, CNN’s Anderson Cooper asked Machado, who was never charged, about the allegation. She admitted to not being a “saint girl” but said the real issue at hand was Trump’s attempt to “destroy my self-esteem.”) Trump also suggested that the public “check out” Machado’s “sex tape and past.”

I will agree with Hillary’s bad judgment is part of the message. And as soon as I finish here I will read the tweets.
Maybe the USA has a critical bimbo shortage?
Yes
Hm....... ok, let Trump be Trump. But a question.
So which is the more vital issue for plain Americans???
Alicia Machado’s weight, in the past, or the job prospects for themselves, their children and their grandchildren???
Please advise.
Come to NC and view the nasty ad that Hillary does with the “Trump called her fat” porn star. You can stay with us. This ad is devastating in that it speaks to girls’ self esteem and needs to be shown the lie that it is.
He made his point, now move on. Clearly, the Clinton camp must be way behind in the polling to be doing this. It’s another shameful display on their part. Did Megyn Kelly actually give this lady a platform, without outing her as the liar and criminal she is?
At least he is up at 5am prepared for the day not sleeping in as Obama does or sleeping all day like Cankles.
Nooooo
Trump let your surrogates do this
The POTUS should not be engaging in a twitter war with a Venezuelan porn star
40 days before the election and he is spending his precious time engaging in twitter war with a venezuelan porn star
Did he bite her lip and tell her to put some ice on it?
Well said! Geez he makes it difficult to support him.
You can only poke someone with a stick so many times before they finally had enough. Look at what he’s up against....It’s everyone vs Trump! I don’t blame him at all!
I don’t care who calls who fat.
Fat is not political issue. Period.
No presidential candidate should be talking about someone calling someone fat, or responding to the same.
NOT AN ISSUE.
Girls’ self esteem? Sorry, girls need to get tough or go home. We need serious girls and women in the future. Women who fall to pieces if someone calls them fat will not do well in life and frankly, are no help to anyone anyway. They can stay home and cry if they want.
Millions of women in the world have real problems and real concerns. Billions of women are working everyday to make their lives and the lives of their families better. They’re going to school, starting families, jobs, careers, taking care of the elderly, running for local political office .... or just working to put food on the table.
They are not silly, weak women yammering about fat this or fat that.
Exactly.
Meanwhile we have worldwide unrest, conflicts, terrorism, and unstable world economy ...
But no, we have to talk about who called who fat 20 years ago.
I’m mad as hell at the person who brought it up but even angrier at the person who fell for this s-t.
We need someone who is not corrupt and a liar as president. But we also need a serious person as president.
If you saw the video of Trump and Alicia in the gym....she adores Trump for saving her a**. And he's the perfect gentleman in the video.
And as for Rosie...she makes me puke.
Very stupid for him to keep this in the news. He is being stupid to not just ignore this and just focus on Hitlery. Let his supporters attack Miss Piggy. Dumb, Donald. Just dumb. Little mistakes like this could cost him the election. Not that I think he has a chance anyway. This close of an election, it should be very easy for Rat voter fraud to steal.
Twitter war?
Yeah, a war of three tweets. All about Hillbags lack of judgement. Oooo.
Since when is Rosie O’Donnell an accomplished actress??
Looks like hillary has paid off many hysterically pc snowflakes to go #nevertrump on this thread.
