long-term drug abuse. Water is heavy. Ascites fluid is just a bit heavier still.

Look at the photos from his inauguration where he is standing next to Obama. Barack Obama is 6'1" and they are about the same height.

As for his weight, he does look like he has lost a little weight so I would say he is somewhere around 265-270.

However, he could have at one time been 6'3, as older folks tend to shrink a bit. A 2" loss is not uncommon.

weight jokes.

If anything, if the lies that tRUMP uttered during his lifetime each weighed an ounce or so, tRUMP would weigh at least 1,000 pounds (or more).

48. Donald Trump arraignment oddsmakers offer bets on how much he will weigh at Georgia booking

I would take the over also





https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12422135/Donald-Trump-arraignment-betting-odds.html

As the deadline for Donald Trump to surrender for booking in Georgia looms, online sportsbooks are going wild with proposition bets on everything from his tie color to his body weight at booking.

One bookmaker site, Antigua-based BetOnline, on Friday offered an over/under of 273.5 pounds for Trump's weight upon his surrender to authorities in Fulton County, noted gambling news Instagram account TheJuice.

Over/unders, which are also often used to bet on the point total of a sporting event, allow the gambler to select whether they believe the outcome will be higher or lower than amount selected by oddsmakers.

According to BetOnline employee Dave Mason, 77 percent of gamblers have taken the over bet on Trump's weight so far, spurring the sportsbook to increase the total by eight pounds.

That might rankle the former president, who on Thursday lashed out at Fox News, accusing the network of using unflattering photographs that make him look 'big' and 'orange' with his 'chin pulled way back'.

If someone wants to fat-shame him, they can have a field day. We don’t need his “official weight” for that.

But I just don’t get why anyone cares?

My entire life, I’ve rarely weighed myself…judging if I needed to lose a few by how .my clothes fit. I’m extremely active, so it’s never been a problem. I just don’t care what someone weighs.

But surely his WEIGHT means nothing compared to the fact that he’s a criminal, a con man, a sociopath? Surely?

but, don't you know? Being fat automatically makes one evil in the minds of many people in our society.

It's why the weight thing being an obsession, is unsurprising.
