Chelsea Clinton told a bold stand against “fat shaming” Tuesday morning after White House chief strategist Steve Bannon joked that press briefings are being held off camera because White House press secretary Sean Spicer “got fatter.”
The former first daughter claimed that the White House is “using fat shaming to justify increased opacity.” She also made sure to point out the current year.
