GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – Donald Trump shamed a former beauty pageant winner on Sept. 30 for her sexual history and encouraged presidential voters to check out what he called her “sex tape,” in an early-morning tweet-storm that dragged him further away from his campaign’s efforts to broaden his appeal to women.
A day after he injected former President Bill Clinton’s infidelities into the campaign, Trump accused Hillary Clinton’s campaign of helping 1996 Miss Universe winner Alicia Machado get U.S. citizenship, but offered no proof. He said Machado had a “terrible” past that a “duped” Clinton had overlooked before holding her up “as an ‘angel” in the first presidential debate.
