Former Miss Universe done giving interviews about 'fat-shaming' after life story unravels

Former Miss Universe says she's done giving interviews about 'fat-shaming' after life story unravels: 'We will not be discussing the Trump subject any further'

Alicia Machado will not give any more interviews on the way Trump treated her She blasted Trump for 'launching insults and are attempting to revive slanders and false accusations about my life, in order to humiliate, intimidate, and unbalance me. 'These attacks are cheap lies with bad intentions,' she said in a statement After Hillary Clinton put a spotlight on Machado's strife with Trump, the 39-year-old's dirty laundry spilled out into the public clip After Hillary Clinton put a spotlight on Machado's strife with Trump in the first general election debate, the 39-year-old's dirty laundry spilled out into the public.

Video from a Spanish reality TV show Machado participated in showed her having sex with another contestant while she was engaged to baseball star Bobby Abreu.

It was further revealed that she was listed as an accomplice in an attempted murder in 1998, two years after she carried the Miss Universe crown.

Machado allegedly drove the getaway car and threatened to kill the judge overseeing the case. Her then-boyfriend was indicted in the criminal case.

Clinton's campaign has been unwilling to admit to knowing, or not knowing, about Machado's past.

'I don't think that in any way excuses what Trump has said about her,' Clinton’s national press secretary, Brian Fallon, told DailyMail.com.

Trump last week accused Machado of making a 'sex tape' as he lashed out at Clinton in a 3 AM Twitter rant

The billionaire also suggested that Clinton's campaign obtained U.S. citizenship for Machado. The Democrat's aides say that's not true. Machado became a citizen on her own.

The scrutiny appears to have taken a toll on the actress and mother.

And her heinousness is so eager to use the “fat-shaming” scandal that she used a “randomly selected” audience member who turns out to be a child actor (and daughter of Democrat state senator) to ask an obviously scripted question for which she can recite a rehearsed response.

Nothing from the lamestream media of course — this link is from a lefty site, but one that doesn’t seem to be in the bag for the Clintons:

* People who attack Trump quickly find out that it’s not a good idea to attack Trump. *

Donald was right about that Hillary-voting skank...

Go, Trump, GO!

The weapon has been used, so they no longer care what happens to her. Just another useful idiot who has served their purpose. Hillary probably views her as nothing more than a domestic servant anyway.

Trump wanted Machado to lose the weight she had gained after she won the Miss Universe crown at 118 LBS. Trump, even though he had not bought the pageant, was present at the live event and commented that Machado was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.

It was after the crowning that she gained the weight. C.B.S., after seeing the weight gain, wanted her out because she violated the contract she signed which required her to maintain her appearance. By that time Trump had purchased the pageant and he put his foot down. He was not going to let the most beautiful woman he has ever seen to forfeit her crown and ruin her career. He hired one of the best trainers and put her up in his lavish Mar-a-Lago estate. The trainer said the goal was to get her down to between 125 and 130 LBS. He said at that weight he can make her look like she was 118 LBS again.

So, getting Machado down to 130 LBS was the goal. I ask, how much over 130 LBS was Miss Machado? 150 LBS? 160 LBS? I heard it was around 160 LBS and they had a real challange to get Miss Machado ready for the crown hand off at the next Miss Universe pageant. If it took some motivational fat shaming, that is part of the routine in the sports word. I remember being shamed on the football team to work harder, being called a “worthless maggot” and other expletives. I heard that her fellow contestants noticed that Miss Machado seemed to be eating more than she should during the pageant events. Perhaps they used the term Miss Piggy towards her and Trump heard about it. It wasn’t about fat shaming, it was about shaming someone who was using poor judgement about the requirements of her role as Miss Universe. It was shaming someone who was using poor judgement that would jeopardize her future.

The role Trump put himself was the classic “Pygmalion,” written in 1912 by George Bernard Shaw. It is the classic story of a man, Professor Henry Higgins, who who bets his friend that he can pass off a poor flower girl, Elisa Doolittle, with a Cockney accent as a duchess by teaching her to speak with an upper class accent. After all Higgins’ effort to refine Miss Doolittle, she, too, rebels against Higgins, throwing his motivational insults back at him, “Oh, I’m only a squashed cabbage leaf.”

Miss Machado was indeed Trump’s Miss Pygmalion.

Hillary trashes another life on her way to power and riches.

List of Lives lost with Hillary’s full cooperation:

Orlando (ISIS)

San Bernardino (ISIS)

Dallas Police (Hillary declaring cops racist)

Benghazi

FALN Terrorists (pardoned without asking so she gets NY votes)

International:
Paris - (ISIS)
Nice (ISIS)
Turkey (ISIS)

Libya - thousands dead.
Syrian - thousands dead, balked on WMD threat, looked like fools
Iran - still promises to get nukes, have missile capability in blatant contradiction of its agreements.
Ukraine - Took Russian money on Uranium One, looked the other way.

For all who wish to put themselves out in public for the sake of team Hillary, take heed. This is what will happen to you and when it does, their use for you is over and done with. It will become as if they never knew you and you will find a whole new meaning the definition of being used.

So with Trump’s rising poll numbers since his twitter rant and machado’s white-flag surrender, will the pearl clutchers here at FR persist in the incorrect notion that Trump’s counter punches against personal smears will kill his campaign?
