Trump’s True Height Exposed as 6’3” William Towers Over Him

.... During the formalities, there was a noticeable height difference between the 6-foot-3 prince and Trump, who was listed as being the same height in a memo released by the White House after his annual physical in April. ....

For years, Trump—who has a habit of exaggerating numbers when it suits him—has been officially listing his height as 6-foot-3, a claim widely disputed. A copy of Trump’s old New York driver’s license, obtained by Politico in 2016, listed him as 6-foot-2. ....

In April, Trump’s physician, Dr. Sean Barbabella, listed the president’s height as 75 inches (6.25 feet) after Trump underwent his physical examination at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. Barbella also claimed Trump weighed 224 pounds, and cited the president’s “frequent victories in golf events” as evidence of his “excellent cognitive and physical health.” ....

Maybe he was 6'3" when he was younger, but he looks shorter than that now.

I doubt he's even 6' now. My mother has gone from 5' 1/2" to 4' 10". Yeah, she's 93 but whatever.

It reminds rump not to try to kiss her. His addled brain probably forgets. I don't blame her. I do blame her for keeping up pretenses.

And, look at those clenched hands. I think he needs to hold on to something for balance.

has rounded up his height. For most of my adult life, I was 6' 2⅜" but claimed to be 6' 3". Now that gravity has had some effect in my 60s, I'm 6' 1⅝" but call it 6' 2".

It doesn't look to me like the Prince "towere over" The Felon, though. Looks like a difference of about one inch.

You know the ones that the Felon brought through his Trump Pipeline of undocumented immigrants
workers from Central America. And the same
ones who used to work for The Felon at his Narco-Lago Club in Palm Beach.
For a long time, they have been spilling the beans and informing their new bosses across Florida that the Orange FelonTraitor aka The Beetlejuice
In Chief wears shoe lifts.

Height and weight are pretty much taken at face value.

What we need are pictures of Trump taken standing beside something that can be independently measured, like a flag stand, or a podium. My guess is he barely makes 5'10", and he's definitely over 300 lbs.

He may have originally been 6 ft 3, but we shrink with age, and his slouching doesn't help.

and stand taller when he wanted to. He even has a special expression for it on his horrible face. You can still see the expression cross his face, and some muscle movement, and I think he feels like he is standing taller . . . but no more.
