Trumpy and his "Little Comments"

Trump is six foot right????

Are his "Little" comments due to another prejudice he has, heightism???

I remember Bill O'Rielly always use to tell people that he was Six Foot Four,
when ever he was losing an argument?

I remember at two different work places I worked at, once we had a couple of
guys who were over 6ft, who seemed to have a really bad attitude to workers
who were short.

Same with another work place, a female manager who was around six foot, who
took an instance hatred to people who were short.

I think this is just another ugly part of Trump's personality, he hates short people,
he wrongly believes height makes you right.

but pictures of him standing next to supposedly shorter people put the lie to that (Obama is 6'1" but looks at least as tall as him in pics)

The biggest, loudest gorilla gets to rule the tribe. Because he's just a lower primate in a badly-fitting suit, Trump thinks, or would like to think, that he's more powerful than shorter men because big animals tend to be more powerful than small animals. This could explain at least some of his extra-strength animosity toward 6'8" Jim Comey, who towers over him. I'm sure Stormy Daniels' revelation that his dick is smaller than average and shaped like a mushroom added to his obvious insecurity about the primate pecking order he thinks he needs to overcome.

instead of a tub of lard. His height only means there's more fat on him.
