Trump, who is a former co-owner of the Miss Universe pageant, began his attack in the early hours.
Wow, Crooked Hillary was duped and used by my worst Miss U. Hillary floated her as an "angel" without checking her past, which is terrible!

Using Alicia M in the debate as a paragon of virtue just shows that Crooked Hillary suffers from BAD JUDGEMENT! Hillary was set up by a con.

Did Crooked Hillary help disgusting (check out sex tape and past) Alicia M become a U.S. citizen so she could use her in the debate?

Trump's accusations about a sex tape don't seem to be based in fact, nor does his allegation that Clinton assisted Machado in obtaining citizenship.
Machado responded to Trump by reminding anyone following the back-and-forth that this is just the latest episode in Trump's long history of misogyny.
"Through his attacks, he's attempting to distract from his campaign's real problems and his inability to be the leader of this great country," Machado wrote on Facebook. "When I was young, the now candidate humiliated me, insulted me, disrespected me both publicly and privately in the cruelest way. The same way this happened to me, it's clear that throughout the years, he's continued his actions and behavior with other women."
Machado took center stage in the race for the White House on Monday after Clinton brought her up during Monday's debate, and has remained in the middle of the country's political discourse throughout the rest of the week.
