Al Sharpton hit President Donald Trump for his weight during comments marking Martin Luther King Jr., Day in Harlem, quipping he should order three Big Macs instead of two.
According to New York Times writer Shane Goldmacher, Sharpton complimented New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D.) as a "national celebrity" and, perhaps alluding to potential White House ambitions, said Trump should "get your best gloves out" before making the joke about Trump's fondness for fast food.
It's a noteworthy comment from Sharpton, given his former obesity.
The now slimmed down-Sharpton once weighed more than 300 pounds. In 2014, the New York Daily News profiled Sharpton's mega-diet that had him down to just 129 pounds as of that publication, and he has maintained that skinny profile since.

Sharpton, a civil rights activist and MSNBC host, has known Trump for decades due to their long ties to New York City.
I suppose it takes a fat man to recognize one? /s
I don’t get it... Wouldn’t a better insult be, “he should order 2 Big Macs instead of 3”?
hardihar Al - you should take it on the road.
How’d they shrink Al except his head?
“Resist the munch”
Yeah, like the middle of the road.
Hey!
Al!
Stick to rubbing crap on poor girls in dumpsters.
You arent funny.
Sharpton is trolling Trump for a racial slur.
Donald knows this and hopefully will come back with a non black stupidity slur that appropriately fit the Fake Minister
I thought fat shaming was bad, or is that only if you do it to fat, liberal feminists?
Pimp Sharpton has a extremely warm place waiting for him when his number is up. What a filthy racist!
Yes, but consider the source.
Al is FUnny but looks aren’t everything!
Al Sharpton got so skinny he looks like an Ethiopian refugee. He can’t even get it up to do any shakedowns anymore. Has he paid his back taxes/ Federal?
Sharpton is too skinny now, after being obese. Doesn't look right or healthy.
That ugly bobble head Sharpton could get a job scaring babies. If my dog looked like him.....you know the rest.
When Al does “the noise of a toad” will the IRS attach his estate?
Rev. Al Sharpton is a joke. How many Reverends does it take to burn down a Freddies Fashion Mart?
