Or if he weighed (i.e., admitted to) one more pound, he would be medically classified as obese.
So, he is a big, fat liar.

As we age, the vertebrates in the spine lose fluid and flatten. And the arches of the feet flatten. Both cause humans to shrink as we get older and it's inevitable for all of us.


However, this MF lies through his teeth. If he was 6'3", he's not any more and hasn't been for awhile.

He's fudging his height now because his weight at 6'1 would make him obese.

Actually there might be a smidgen of truth in that; he might have been taller as a young man. Happens to all of us. But he was never anywhere near 6’-3”. Even with his stilts it doesn’t look like he makes it much over 6’.

I once shook Clinton's hand at a rally, and the man's about my same height.

Cheeto's clearly an inch shorter, which makes him around 5'11".



Having lived in Brentwood for several years in the past, I might add that a lot of celebrities who claim to be 6', are actually 5'9" or so.

Never met any of the three you mentioned. But I did meet Maria Shriver.

She most certainly isn't 5'11" (5'9" at most).

Very nice though, that's for sure.

I believe it was Presidential physician Ronny Jackson who reported Trump's height as being 6'3" to avoid classifying him as 'obese.'

If Pompeo is "a heat seeking missile for Trump's ass," then Admiral Ronny "Candyman" Jackson is Trump's own personal Rear Admiral.
