I'm 5'6" and 230 lbs!

Trump is not 244 lbs! He has to be 40 lbs or more heavier than me! I have high blood pressure and am a diabetic! They say he has normal blood pressure??? I watch what I eat and my cholesterol is not where it should be! He eats fast food most everyday! Take it with a grain of salt on how Trump’s health is. Granted I don’t know what his health status is like, but I know my own conditions where are? I can get an idea of what he is going through.

Brady is 1.93m (almost exactly 6-4, ) and around 225 pounds (so 230 is close enough) this pic proves Celerity Jun 2020 #5

there is ZERO chance Trump is 6 feet 3 inches tall. Brady is even slightly behind him, so if side by side would appear even taller.



George HW Bush was 1.88m (6-2)

Plus Trump wears lifts.



Jeb Bush IS 6-3, 1.91m

look at how he towers over Trump

My blood lipids are...

LDL....146
HDL....83
Triclycerides...76
AIC....5.4
Glucose....92 (fasting)
Blood Presure...121/68

Overall Cholesterol is high, but not a conern being my HDL's and Triclycerides are so good. I am on NO mediction other than for my eyes. If I ate the diet Trump does, I would be more than double what I weigh now. 7 years ago, I went back to Weight Watchers to re-earn my Lifetime member benefits weighing 208 pounds. My goal is 155. Even during this stay at home shutdown per se, I have managed to stay well below goal.

Trump is all about appearances. Under his clothes, he is a blob. His luck will run out.

He's a conman, remember? His photo ops are done to project whatever it is that he wants people to believe, whether it's with a Bible or a bucket of KFC. Who knows? Maybe he owns stock in fast food companies and wants his base to think he lives on the stuff. If they gobble it up, he makes money.
