Is Donald Trump the fattest President in 100 years?

This is, in some ways, not an important question, and it’s cruel to shame people about their weight.

However, since Trump himself thinks it’s very important to judge people on the basis of weight and looks, we feel it’s ok to delve into the president’s weight compared with his predecessors.

Trump is 6 feet, 3 inches tall and weighs 243 pounds, according to a statement released by the White House physician early this year. That places his body mass index, or BMI, at about 30.4, making him technically obese.

So it’s pretty obvious Trump takes the crown as the fattest president in the last 100 years, and that’s assuming you believe that he is 243 pounds and 6’3″.

It seems plausible that he weighs more than 243 pounds, perhaps in the 250-260 range. But amazingly, the better case has to do with his height.

Photos of him standing next to other people strongly suggest that he is not 6’3″; Politico also found his driver’s license, which says that he’s 6’2″. Apparently he gets quite angry when people say that he’s 6’2″, but there you have it: Donald Trump is 6’2″. He’s not 6’3″; he’s 6’2″. To be clear: That’s 6’2″ for Donald Trump’s height, which is not 6’3″, and instead is merely 6’2″.


He thinks public speaking is a form of exercise, because he moves his arms around and it is sometimes hot in the room. This is not a man who works out, or, indeed, fully grasps the concept of working out. So, while it is possible that the use of BMI unfairly maligns the fitness of some Presidents, it clearly barely scratches the surface of Trump’s unhealthiness.

1. Fuck you, John K. (bathroom) Stahl

[roamer65]

2. William Howard Taft I do believe was the largest president.

A one termer that pissed off Teddy Roosevelt. They were friends then turned into bitter political rivals.

Stahl needs to STFU. Stacey is a national treasure.

[CatWoman]

3. that article takes Taft in consideration

however, it limits the discussion to the last 100 years

[roamer65]

4. Taft was a big guy.

I do believe I read they put in a special bathtub for him.

[CatWoman]

5. yep

his weight was in the 360 range.........

[roamer65]

6. Politically I hope Dump follows in Tafts's footsteps.

Taft finished 3rd in the 1912 election.

[trueblue2007]

8. HE IS A FAT PIG

that is not being very nice to piggies.....

[smirkymonkey]

7. Trump is 6'1 tops and 300 lbs at the very least.

Look at him next to other people who claim to be 6'2 or 6'3. He is shorter And he wears lifts. Also, there are photos of other people who are said to be the same height and weight as him or heavier, yet they look like they are fit and trim and he looks like a fat slob. He is lying about his height and weight just like he lies about everything else.

15. He shrank over the past dozen years years or so

I randomly met him in 1993 or so. I'm 5'11 and he was at least three inches taller than me. He may have been 6'2 1/2 or 6'3 then.

Here's a pic from 2008. Bill Clinton is 6'2. He's about as tall there. He towers over Bloomberg, who almost certainly is lying about being 5'8. Rudy Giuliani is 5'9.

[smirkymonkey]

17. Here he is on his inauguration day.

No way is he 6'3. And there is no way he is 248 pounds. He is a huge lardass and getting fatter every day.

[Polybius]

18. Like I said, he shrank over the past dozen years or so

He's probably 6'1 now.

[Initech]

9. He's also the laziest president we've ever had.

He spends 8 hours a day watching TV, wears diapers, and eats Big Macs in bed. Can't get much lazier than that.

[roamer65]

12. Sounds like Ted Nugent when he evaded the draft.

[Hekate]

10. Interesting thing about William Howard Taft: in every photo he is immaculately dressed...

...in well-tailored suits and shirts. If he had ever had occasion to visit Buckingham Palace, his appearance would not have made us cringe with embarrassment.

He's the kind of guy you'd say: "He's a big man, all right." But you would never call him a fat slob. Trump, otoh, is a slob, and a morbidly obese one.

[roamer65]

11. Very true.

Taft was big, but he had class. Something COVID-45 will never have.

[samnsara]

13. that a beautiful picture of Stacy...

[samnsara]

14. im tempted to unblock him so i can yell at him even more

[Hiawatha Pete]

16. Who cares what president Fatty Lumpkin tweets...

No disrespect meant to anyone else with a high body mass index. Trump is fair game since he opened that door.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

19. So wait, fat people we don't like have to talk nicely about fat people we do like, and if they

don't, we can talk in great detail about how fat the fat people we don't like are, as if that won't affect the culture the fat people we do like live in?

21. Shooting The Messenger?

Frankly I'm sick of worrying about hurt feelings when discussing people who use those insults?
I'm getting certain it's the only thing they understand. This "we go high" thing is not working!!

[WhiskeyGrinder]

22. What does it look like when "going low" works?

How will you know it’s working?

[ProfessorGAC]

24. Rs Lose!

Quite binary.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

26. So you're saying that using oppressive rhetoric against Republicans will make them lose?

Walk me through how that works, because I'm not seeing it.

[jcgoldie]

20. More importantly unfortunately he's...

... the stupidest president about 240 years.

[CatWoman]

23. LOL!!!!
