Trump: 'Check out sex tape' of former Miss Universe

Donald Trump went after a former Miss Universe in a string of early-morning tweets Friday, encouraging voters to “check out” an alleged “sex tape” of Alicia Machado, who has been on the offensive against the GOP presidential nominee all week.

During Trump’s first debate with Democrat Hillary Clinton on Monday, she mentioned old comments he made about a Miss Universe contestant, whom he complained gained weight after she won the crown.

Machado has since given a series of interviews slamming the real estate mogul as sexist, but Trump says Clinton was “duped” into ever bringing her up.

Machado was photographed topless for Playboy and appeared on a risqué reality TV show, but fact-checkers have rated the claim that she appeared in a sex tape as "mostly false."

Trump has struggled with female voters throughout his campaign, a weakness Clinton, the first woman nominated by a major party, has repeatedly sought to exploit.

Just so you know, this is a complete lie, there is no sex tape. Trump is disgusting.

Actually, according to the Facebook posts supporting Trump it's an anal sex tape.

Yes, this is where we are.

things go! He is obsessive-compulsive. He has no control over himself to the point of tweeting throughout the night on the same subject.

The only way to stop this is for Hillary to bring up something else for him to obsess on.

His third wife posed for nude photos years ago, and aside from questions of her immigration status at the time, that sensationalist story quickly came and went as it should have. Apparently Trump has a double standard where everything and everyone is fair game, even if the perceived negative issue at hand happens to be close to home.

Now Trump needs to wear it. It should be referred to as Trump's Anal Sex Tape.
