The President must of 6 inches on the squirt.

7”

Trump 6’3”
Mini Mike 5’8”

I think the Iowa caucus will be disappointing for Dems.. Iowa’s Republicans will be out at their caucus...

I wonder why Bloomberg hates Trump so much - apparently this goes back a ways.

But the Biden case of comity and cooperation could be harder to make after Republican senators marched in lockstep with Trump over impeachment, not just in terms of their likely vote at the end of the process but in their refusal to countenance calling ^{an unlimited number of} witnesses ^{over an indefinite period of time for the prosecution and none for the defense.}

Bloomberg wants to be liked, too. Trump was a popular celebrity and he never was.

[gcparent]

He may have borrowed DeNiros elevator shoes.

These days average American male is 5’8”. Hispanics have lowered the average height.

[gcparent]

You are right. He is a genius.

[Texas Eagle]

Exactly. But when Burning Sandals says he drew the largest crowd of any demonicRAT this cycle without offering evidence, meh, that’s good enough for this reporter.

[pa_dweller]

The dumb asses at The Hill don’t seem to realize that Trump just made it impossible for Bloomberg to use a box (or anything else) to stand on. Trump outsmarts them again!

5D chess, baby, 5D chess.

Little big man want to be big man.

It wasn’t Trump that scheduled the State of The Union speech. Nancy Pehosi and McConnell had to invite Trump to Congress to give the speech. This is not Trump’s doing, although he will still kick their arses. The State of the Union could have been given in January.

[FreedomNotSafety]

no they are not “getting it”. This quotation from the article proves it, “The president, whose instinct for making news often outstrips his veracity, claimed without evidence that former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg wanted to be able to stand on a box to make himself look taller at forthcoming Democratic debates.”

The idiot Niall thinks that Trump purports to make a factual claim! Anyone who cannot understand hyperbole, parody, sarcasm, and irony needs to find some other occupation that does not include writing and politics.

[Robert DeLong]

The president drew 7,000 people to a Drake University sports arena

And how many were outside the venue unable to get in? 8>)

[GailA]

Considering he's 5′ 8″, Trump is 6'1", he'd need 2 boxes.
