Those are two different measurements.

He's six feet tall.

And he's three inches.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 4 days ago

And he’s three inches.

On a good day if you start measuring from the top of the asshole. Guess that doesn't really narrow it down though.

This is one of the ways you can tell that his recent health report was bullshit.

Per the report, Trump’s height and weight are 75 inches and 224 pounds, respectively. Scans of several body systems—including the eyes, ears, neck, throat, and heart—came back normal.

Ain't no doctor giving a completely clean bill of health with a 28 BMI at his age.

[–] [email protected] 85 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (7 children)

I'm 6'3 225 and I can assure you, I wasnt nearly that fat even when I was pushing 250. If he's actually 6'3 (he isn't) then brody is pushing 270-300 EASY. You can hide a lot of weight on a 6'3 frame, but not that much.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 4 days ago (2 children)

As someone who has also been 6'3" 225 agreed. He is definitely heavier than that.

Pilling on, am 6'4", at my heaviest (about 305) I still never looked that, eh, bloated. I'd have been more ~350lbs looking like that. Now I'm down in the 210's with still a little more to go.

It was bizarre to see the medical report mention that he won his golf tournaments. No doctor wouldn't add that.

Also his body temperature is 98.6 exactly and 99% pulse ox 🤣

And Elmo is 6'2, something sure seems off, can't believe the compulsive liar would lie about that tho

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

Never get your picture taken with the Devil.

[–] [email protected] 39 points 4 days ago (3 children)

We have to stop reporting on Trump lies like they're shocking.

Yeah dude, the lying liar lied.

Literally every time this dude opens his mouth he is either lying or spewing hate. Sure as the sun will rise tomorrow, so will Trump lie.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I disagree. When we stop pointing out the lies that the lying liar tells, we are complicit in him getting away with the lies. A shitload of people aren't really paying much attention. Those people might believe his lies if they're not seeing anybody pointing out that what he's saying is a lie.

Honestly, I'd rather see it pointed out even more what a fucking liar he is. I want the media to stop saying "falsely states" and other bullshit soft language, and then let it go to fucking trial and beat him if he tries to sue for slander/libel. It's a fucking disgrace that they're not only choosing to not do this, but they're settling when he claims that they're factual reporting on him is defamation or election interference. But honestly, at this point, I won't be satisfied until he's in a stockade and getting pelted by overpriced eggs.

Eggs.

Eggs.

Eggs.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I never said stop reporting, I said stop acting surprised. I don't want them to stop talking about it, I just want them to be honest about it and say "Trump lied about this today" instead of "the Trump white house thinks...."

I just want them to call a spade a spade instead of acting like it's not

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Ah, I misinterpreted your phrasing. "We have to stop reporting on Trump lies like they're shocking" sounded like "nobody is shocked by his lies, so there's no point in bothering to report on it." You meant "stop feigning surprise in your reporting of his lies." I fully agree with you.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago

Yes, that is exactly what I meant. Cheers

How fucking terrible of a person do you have to be to continuously lie about something so trivial and easily proven.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 4 days ago (2 children)

It's more being insecure. He might try to act all tough, but he's really soft or he wouldn't care. And wouldn't get so reactionary/easily triggered.

See? Same hight.

[–] [email protected] 46 points 4 days ago (4 children)

Might be 6'3 if he was stretched out on one of those Medieval torture racks.

[–] [email protected] 35 points 4 days ago (2 children)

To quote an old post "there must have been a second or two where it felt amazing"

[–] [email protected] 27 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I undergo weekly spinal decompression therapy. While not exactly the same as the medieval torture devices, being strapped in and having my spine pulled from both directions with 200lbs of force is pretty close.

And yes, it feels amazing for a second or two.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 days ago (1 children)

May I ask what condition you're treating with that therapy?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 4 days ago (4 children)

In my spine my L5-S1 and L4-L5 are herniated (as of 2017, haven't checked if any more are). Full on herniated, not bulging. It started when I was 20, and my doctor said surgery should be avoided since it could impact my quality of life significantly at my age (not that my QoL wasn't already severely impacted). Epidurals and physical therapy didn't help.

Back then it wasn't miserable 24/7 but it had it's moments. Eventually I had an "episode" where I was bedridden in immense amounts of pain for a solid week. During that desperation I found the IDD option and started that. It was rough back then at the start. But within weeks the constant pain died down and I recovered mobility as well as my sciatica improved.

Through... Losing a job I discovered the effects wear off after 2ish months and I start being susceptible to the episodes and random function loss again, so now I just go weekly to keep things peachy. It isn't full recovery obviously, I still wind up in pain if I do too much with my back, even stuff as little as bending over slightly to do the dishes (because I'm tall), but it beats being disabled in constant pain... Those few episodes I've had haunt me. Being so helpless I couldn't even.

Yeah, I was gonna say whatever is going on with his spine might be hiding a few inches. You’d be amazed how many inches you can lose to curvature without looking like Quasimodo.

But I doubt he was ever 6’3”. That sounds like a number he picked years ago because someone he hates is 6’2”.

That's what happens when you drink straight from the orange tap.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 days ago

You are missing the point. AFAIK, a foot and an inch are supposed to be based off of the kings measurements. He might be 6 of his own feet (not sure how the plural works here) because he sees himself as the king

[–] [email protected] 36 points 4 days ago (4 children)

doctors' always measure my weight, but just take my word for height

[–] [email protected] 19 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

Same. I can't recall any of my doctors ever measuring my height. The police and RCMP however.. both kept pretty good records of my teenage growth years.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 days ago (1 children)

My doctor's office measured my height along with my weight last year. First time I remember since I've been an adult. I'm an old white woman and apparently I've lost an inch.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Maybe it was just cold in the office. Happens to the best of us.

Im not saying Trump is 6'3*, he's clearly not. I myself have shrunk over an inch and I'm younger than him by a generation. But people don't always measure the same, or try to. I have a friend who is 6'1" who swears he's 5'11". He never stands up straight. At my tallest I was 5'11 3/4" and you better believe I was giving my measurements all I could hoping I'd get to 6'. My guess is Trump once was 6'3", has shrunk to just a little over 6', and Newsom is probably closer to 6'4". But without putting a measuring tape to them, what the hell do any of us know?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Yeah I don't really give a fuck about Trump's height tbh, but you can see by their shadows that Newsom is walking slightly in front and the lens could be affecting our perspectives. Makes the difference seem larger than it is.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Trump reminds me of Charlie Sheen. Trump is always"winning", hangs out with pornstars, and his ego is so inflated that Freud would quit doing cocaine. Trump needs to be treated like Reagan was. Like, when the secret service would place leaves in the pool. But, in this case, give him a room with a camera and tell him that he matters. But it broadcasts to nobody.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 4 days ago

maybe he was 6'3" in the 80s and has been in denial since

[–] [email protected] 15 points 4 days ago (6 children)

How much is it in normal units?
