300 lbs? Highly unlikely.

1 Trump is OBESE.

2 Trump has heart disease.


now what part of that are you going to disagree with Skeddy? hmm, are you going to claim that a calcium score of 133 is NOT heart disease? Are you skeddy? or are you going to just rant and stamp your feet, hurl some insults etc...?

I am guessing you will do what you always do. ie continue to deny the facts and fail to provide any support for those denials.
I feel, as you do, that Trump is obese, but it is only a fact (with the particular yardstick being discussed) if you can definitively prove (not just what it says on his DL...my father was 6' 7", but it said 6' 6" on his DL) that he's shorter and/or weighs more than what the Admiral stated.

Correction: Deny/don't swallow whole lies promoted and promulgated by a chronically lying source. Liars like pathological Trump and his proxies lie and coerce others to lie and/or bend/distort the truth. So, whatever flows forth from that non-credible and disreputable source is founded in a motivation to lie and deceive- about science, health results or whatever else. Truth is anathema to Trump, even when it would serve him better. Characteristic of a long-term con-artist.

So, for Trump supporters who lap up those lies, you get to continue doing that because they will keep on coming--in abundance. For those wiser, who recognize them, we will look for as much truth as can be revealed which we know those lies are intended to obscure. We aren't so easily fooled as to buy the Trump schtick hook, line and sinker as his Cult members want to do. Whatever would Trumpers do if there were some tiny crack in their defense that showed Trump to be imperfect-- a mere uber-flawed mortal.

After living through William the Impeached (who lied so much and often that he was impeached because of it) I didn't think Leftists would make such a fuss if other presidents lied, too. Of course, much of Trump's "lies" are not even that.

In order though to diminish the impact of Trump being mildly obese according to the BMI, you'd have to show why he personally does not fit within these averages. You haven't done that at all. You haven't shown why these numbers are not applicable to him.

A decent President would take advantage of this moment to tell everyone about the dangers of fat and cholesterol. He would initiate a highly visible exercise program and encourage others in the country to follow him. Hasn't happened. I don't expect it to happen. Because, deep down, all DT is trying to do here is create a better photo op for himself.
Not deflecting at all, just calling B.S. on all the BMI claims like it's an exact science that's correct every time. It's not.
Face it, all the TDS people are just looking for some reason to hammer Trump with even if it's a very questionable hammer.

Try again with some real scientific facts, not just some guidelines...

so so so sorry to tell you if the BMI says Trump is OBESE , it applies to him more than 90% of the world.
The damn thing was invented for his body type, so YES Trump is OBESE..


you should have researched BMI instead of researching reasons BMI is no good....
this is what happens when you seek to find support for you desired outcome rather than seek to learn with and open mind.
You mean like you're doing? BMI is still B.S. when used as an absolute...

Look. Doctors don't lie. If the doctor said Trump weighs 239, then he weighs 239! He just didn't mention that it was a metric scale and those were kilos.
