Alicia Machado, Miss Universe: "He was very overwhelming. I was very scared of him. He'd yell at me all the time. He'd tell me 'you look ugly' or 'you look fat.' Sometimes he'd 'play' with me and say 'Hello Miss Piggy, hello Miss Housekeeping.' "
As for Christie, I never made fun of him for his weight, though I have said that I thought it would be a health concern, if he were to run for president. Christie is very aware of his weight and doesn't mock other people's opinion. I have mocked his nasty and cruel temper though.
Any ridicule I've seen or heard about Trump's appearance has been to showcase his gross hypocrisy and cruelty to other people when it came to their appearance. I'm not seeing any "fat shaming", I'm seeing "character shaming" and it is much deserved.
