88. Never Said She Was An "Angel"
Fri Sep 30, 2016, 01:46 PM
Sep 2016

Whether Alicia Machado is an "angel" is irrelevant. The issue is whether Donald Trump called a woman Ms. Piggy solely because she gained 20-60 pounds after being named Miss Universe. Even if she did gain weight after winning Miss Universe there was no reason to call her Ms. Piggy.

Also, Hillary Clinton never presented Machado as an "angel". Clinton just stated the fact that Donald Trump had treated Machado like he had treated many other women. He had called her insulting names just because of her appearance.
