Discussion: Trump Is Considered Obese Despite Doctor Touting 'Very Good Health'

It’s not my understanding that you can be in “very good health” and oh by the way also be obese. It’s a risk factor for all kinds of serious problems. But obviously they held up the results until a busy news day and quite possibly fudged them a bit as well because Trump demanded that it be done and they caved. That’s not a healthy man, I’m sorry.

Depending on how long he had been sitting or lying down before having his numbers checked, those aren’t entirely impossible. Just think of “resting” as “comatose” or “sleeping”.

Don’t worry, just like everything else Trump, its total bullshit. The only way this rotund asshole has a 118/80 blood pressure is if he’s being medicated for it or something else that lowers blood pressure.

Obese? He’s merely corpulent.

The diagnosis was reached after the doctors used their eyes.

I’m calling shenanigans on the weight too. I’m 5’10 and about 230 and he looks like much more of a fat ass than I do.

As far as the health stuff goes, BMI is mostly useful as a population level kind of measurement. There’s really no contradiction in an individual being somewhat obese but also generally healthy.

Perhaps 6’3” to the top of his doo wearing shoes with 1” heels. I was 5’ 11” in my thirties. I’m barely above 5’ 9” now at 71 and barefoot. People shrink when they age. Spinal discs compress and arches flatten; and it’s worse if you carry extra pounds. No way has he maintained his height if he were ever 6’ 3”. The docs just ask him and he tells them what to write down.

Lying again about stuff no normal person would feel the need to lie about

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump has put on some pounds and is now officially considered obese.

English version:
WASHINGTON (AP) — Doctors today said President Donald Trump has put on shy of a stone or two and is now officially considered larger than the average phone box that used to be a common sight not only in London, but in the Midlands as well.

White House spokesman Sarah Huckabee Sanders disputed the doctors findings, characterizing it as “fake medicine.”

Perhaps he was quickly weighed in AF1 during a rapid descent to simulate weightlessness.

If you look at the obvious excessive weight and then consider all the other known and suspected risk factors and concerning symptoms I think you’d feel it was maybe improbable that he’s in fact in good general health.

Oh, yeah. Trump is the quintessential “toxic personality”. He maintains his health as he makes everyone else around him stressed and unhealthy.
