Donald Trump dared to call a former Miss Universe “Miss Piggy.” He also called her “Miss Housekeeping,” ridiculing her Latina heritage. So now Alicia Machado is all over news networks, boo-hooing about that racist, sexist Trump. Her champion, naturally, is Hillary Clinton.
As Tony Soprano would say, “Boo freakin’ hoo.”
Before you accept any invitation to Ms. Machado’s Pity Party, think about this:
In 1998, Machado, a native of Venezuela, was accused in Venezuelan court papers of being an accomplice to a murder. She allegedly drove her then-boyfriend away from — get this — a funeral, where he shot his brother-in-law. Her lawyer said she was filming a TV show. She claimed she was at home, sick. Whatever.
But wait, there’s more. Machado was not charged, but the judge in the case later publicly claimed that Machado threatened him, saying “she would make sure, using her friendship with the president [Rafael Caldera], that my career as judge is ruined and then she would kill me.”
Well, yeah. Generally one’s career is ruined if one is deceased. But no one accused Alicia Machado of being a genius. The judge found her number on his cell phone. He decided to open a new case against her.
Innocent Ms. Machado admitted making the call, but it was to thank him for “his unbiased pursuit of justice.”
Right. And bears don’t. . . well, you know.
But there’s even more, dear readers!
We are looking at 2015 in the rear view mirror. Unfortunately for the security of this country, the issues we are dealing with aren’t so easily gotten rid…
