I don’t doubt that he once was 6’ 3” tall. But he’s soon 70 years old. Everyone else shrinks with age. Whynot him? I once was 6’0”, but at 77 I’m 5’ 11 1/2”. Gravity gets the upper hand.
Hard hitting Gerbalism..I mean journalism.
We are 20.5 trillion in debt not 20 trillion.
Paging Jill Stein
Sheesh! Talk about your slow news day...
It probably depends on whether they are measuring from the top of his hair or the top of his scalp
“meanwhile Robert Reich is still 4 7.”
But he becomes 6’-2” after taking Viagra.
If he’s 6’2” at the age of 70, he was probably over 6’3” when he was younger.
I was with my father at his last cardiology appointment before he died at 77. I had the nurse measure his height when she weighed him, and he had shrunk down to 5’11” down from 6’2”.
I commend you for your awesome post.
Too bad the electors have voted
This scandal might have changed a lot of minds
I’m sure glad they are investigating important stuff and not trivial nonsense.
When I drive to work at 6 am I adjust my rear-view mirror up and when I drive home at 6 pm I adjust it down. I probably shrink nearly an inch during the day.
Is that official government casual measurement?
My military records have a 5” variation in height...non-sequentially.
Trump is not a small man! He’s a pretty big dude. I used to date a man who was 6’2” and he was a large man. I don’t mean rotund around the middle, or even over weight. I mean large bones; big hands, big feet, long legs, hugely broad shoulders, his hands made my medium size woman’s hand look very small. But when he stood next to other men, many were taller than he.
Trump looks to be every bit of 6’3”. I’ve seen him in person and from only about 30-40 feet away so that’s not very far. He’s a large man.
It could be when he got his license he WAS 6’2” and if he was a young man, he may have grown some. When other men stand next to Trump, he tends to dwarf them.
I don’t know about other places, but whenever I’ve renewed my license, they tend to keep old information even after giving them the new info. Kindda annoys me, for sure! For example, when I was young, I was OK with being an organ donor. But since then, health issues came up that prohibits that so I say no to organ donation, and have for years! But, they put it on my license anyway!!!
I am diabetic, and some states will list that on my license, some states will not. I like for that to be on my license in case I can’t speak for myself. I do carry other insignia, but none of it is a guarantee it will be noticed, but everybody looks at the driver’s license. They will even try to make an accident your fault if they see that, hoping to collect a few bucks for the county coffers, so it definitely doesn’t get overlooked lol!
In any event, some people try to strain out a gnat to keep a camel.
Hey, Politico, we shrink as we age!!
Oh, my! How will we go on?
I saw this yesterday at the partner of Ivanka’s airline attacker Twitter.
I thought Trump was tall, but 6’2” or 3” is huge! No wonder Crooked Hillary was worried about him ove whelming her by height.
I’ve never been measured at the driver’s license office. Your driver’s license reads whatever you fill in. So Trump says he’s 6’ 2” and his doctor’s office says (from a measurement) that he’s 6’ 3”.
Trump actually claims the shorter height since he filled it in on his license.
OMG!!! I can’t believe I voted for him!!!
Obviously non of this matters an iota but I wonder if the idiots ever considered the fact that one actually loses height as they age.
