Metaphorically speaking, he wouldn’t reach the tops of the soles of his shoes.

having played bball in school, it is least kept secret in sports that everyone gets an extra 1-2" added to their height for the program. Trump has just kept that going into his 70's. I actually joked w/ my wife that he'd do that before the report ever came out.

God knows I am no fan of trump, I despise him. Having said that, you can pretty much say whatever you want, within reason, on your drivers license. I don’t know what I weigh but I’m pretty sure it’s more than I put down on my license. My hair color, sort of depends on the season and I think I might have shrunk a half an inch. I just guess. Point being, no one is that precise on your drivers license.

Doesn't that make him the best driver? Somebody should tell him he doesn't need a chauffeur. Or a pilot. Clearly he can do both of those things better than the Secret Service, Marines, or Air Force.

When was the last time this guy drove himself anywhere?

He's trying to beat the "obese" category. By lying, not diet and exercise... that's for common saps.
