Fat Shaming....Spread the word, Trump not only is a racist, he puts down overweight people

Putting down overweight people is mean and vicious. If you have any overweight friends or acquaintances, let them know that Trump makes fun of them and puts them down. And...this is important.. Why?
One third of the people in the USA have a weight problem....A significant minority that Trump enjoys making fun of..(one third of the country!!)
And I know most of those who are overweight (I was one of them) don't like people who make fun of them/us.
...It is an awful problem....The last thing we need is to be made fun of...

PASS THIS ON..

He has about as much standing to fat-shame as he does to criticize other peoples' adulterous relationships. What a piece of trash.

But many overweight people are very sensitive about this. This fat shaming hurts all.

they were given clinical names. They're now in their 50s and still feel the pain.

Just wondering because Trump is such a sexist piece of work, I wondered if he ever publicly criticized a male with weight issues.

He is vile. I can't believe he has the support base he does.
