Donald Trump was booked at the Fulton County jail in Atlanta on Thursday night. There was much public interest in the former president’s height and weight. BetOnline, an online betting website, released odds on Trump’s weight being over or under 278 pounds.
The booking record states that Trump is 6-foot-3 and weighs 215 pounds. This is almost 30 pounds lighter than his reported weight at his last White House physical.
The sheriff later revealed that he allowed Trump to “self-report” his heigh and weight
According to the jail records of Trump’s co-defendants, these numbers may not be accurate, either.
An August 14 indictment charged Trump and 18 co-defendants with their attempt to reverse the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia.
The statistics collected include each co-defendant’s weight, height, hair color, eye color and race, but it’s apparent that the data is off.
For instance, Cathy Latham, one of the charged co-defendants, is labeled with blonde or strawberry-blonde hair, but public appearances show that her hair is gray.
In addition, Rudy Giuliani, Trump’s former attorney, had records that gave a height of 5-foot-9 and a weight of 180 pounds. But these numbers were later changed to 5-foot-11 and 230 pounds. It was reported that the former mayor of New York City was never asked about his height or weight and was not measured at the jail.
The speculation about Trump’s height and weight originates from his concerns about his physical appearance. The former president stated in 2016 that he was 6-foot-3 and 236 pounds, which many medical sources consider as overweight. He later said that he wanted to lose 15 to 20 pounds. Since then, he has reportedly weighed just below the body mass index level for obesity.
Wags on social media compared Trump’s unfit figure to that of athletes like Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who is 6’3” and 223 pounds.
