Donald Trump has been busy on Twitter.

The Republican presidential nominee posted tweets about Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, journalistic sources, and sex tapes early Friday morning.

Many of the tweets referenced beauty contestant Alicia Machado, who was thrust into the national spotlight this week after Clinton told viewers during Monday night’s presidential debate that Trump once called her “Miss Piggy” because of her weight and “Miss Housekeeping” because she is Latina. Machado is the 1996 Miss Universe.

“She gained a massive amount of weight and it was a real problem,” Trump told Fox News in an interview after the debate.
