It’s been a rough presidential race for Donald Trump.
There he is, taking time out of his busy and successful career to carefully and eloquently explain basic human principles to us all, and here we are just misunderstanding them like the cretins we are.
Like earlier this week when it was uncovered that he had referred to a woman as “Miss Piggy” and we all took offence, that hurt him.

Has this buffoon actually looked at HIMSELF in the mirror?!?
So I absolutely loathe Trump, but his attitude to fat people (but primarily fat women) isn't that far beyond the mainstream. He is acting like tonnes of people do everyday.
Obese people earn less than thin people. They report being picked on by strangers in public. Any time a female celebrity appears to have anything but a concave stomach they're dogged by pregnancy rumours. Picking on people's weight (again especially women) is a common and fairly socially acceptable form of discrimination and I think many people tut-tutting Trump are also guilty of fatism but in a slightly less overt way.
