NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington Bureau) – Venezuelan-born beauty queen Alicia Machado became a U.S. citizen  very recently, and when Miss Universe 1996 casts her first vote in November, it won’t be for the man who once insulted her for her weight and her accent.  Trump had once called her “Miss Piggy” and “Miss Housekeeping.”

Today, during the first U.S. presidential debate, Miss Machado figured prominently when Hillary Clinton mentioned her (after Trump asked) when she talked about how Donald Trump denigrates women.

Tonight, Miss Machado must be reminiscing her coronation night, waving to the crowd while secretly  giving the former owner of the Miss Universe Organization a middle finger.
