True, but Mr Trump appears to be leaning backwards…

where are you getting this info? like other (real) athletes, wrestlers have an incentive to lie about their height. so does trump… methinks everyone in your pictures can't be trusted to self-report their heights honestly.
I'm guessing Trump wears lifts.

Stone Cold is 6' 1"… Trump looks taller than him in this picture…
6'11.5" (accoring to his teams roster) Duke star Elton Brand famously showed up at the NBA Combine and was measured as just under 6'9".
well.. anyways.. he's fat… when was our last fat president? was Bubba fat? if not you'd have to go way back I think….Taft?

T. Roosevelt followed by Taft may have been the darkest 12 year span in American weight-related history. Everyone forgets Roosevelt was obese as fuck.

I thought Teddy was just pure muscle?
But yes.. dark times…

I mean, he's remember as this great sportsman and alpha-male but look at him:
He rode on a horse and shot things. Pulling a trigger doesn't burn calories. Roosevelt was the early-1900s version of a fratboy lacrosse player who puts on 60 lbs his first two years out of college but still walks around the rest of his life convinced that his former glories happened earlier that day.

yes well.. those were different times… I guess he was kind of like Hemingway in some ways… another "athlete" that liked to participate in competitive barstool sitting competitions…
I hate to hold his weight against him as he's one of my favorite presidents.. but I guess I will have to … just to be fair…I guess I always thought of him as big boned and brawny….more than flabby and obese….

He rocks those C-bridge pince-nezes tho.

to billy's credit, he jogged. occasionally involved a stop for a big mac, but he was able to lay down a few miles.
trump doesn't exercise, at all (no, golf isn't exercise). in case of an emergency, the secret service would have trouble evacuating him - he'd be huffing and puffing, likely passing out before he makes it to the limo/chopper/bunker/etc.
Trump says campaigning is his exercise

Trump doesn't exercise, and other things we've learned from the Dr. Oz interview
His main form of exercise is talking a lot, apparently: ?I never thought it, but speaking is almost a form of exercise,? Trump told People. ?It?s very exhilarating. Last night I was in Knoxville for 12,000 people. When you are speaking to 12,000 great people, you don?t feel like eating.?
As for more traditional exercise, Trump golfs. He says while some people might not consider it to be exercise, ?It keeps you away from the refrigerator because you?re out on the course.?

Donald Trump said he weighed 236 pounds and stands 6' 3" during his Oz interview, per attendees. BMI calculator puts him at 29.5, overweight
per other sources (see my links above), the weight mentioned during the Oz show was 267 pounds. if we believe 6'3", and 267 is right, BMI = 33.4.

Golf IS exercise, if you're not using a golf cart. Four miles of walking per day isn't too shabby for a 70 year old.
A golf course averages about 6500 yards. For the sake of math, let's make that 6800. There 1720 yards per mile. That results in 4 miles of straight line walking.

Just because pro wrestling matches have predetermined endings does not mean the competitors are not athletes…
