Trump will be weighed during his GA arrest, and in my understanding his weight will be on the public arrest report. What do you think his weight will be in lbs? My guess - 287 lbs. ---

On [this site](https://www.betonline.ag/sportsbook/futures-and-props/us-election/trump-indictment) you can place bets on not only his weight, but the color of his tie, whether he will wear a MAGA hat, and whether he will smile/smirk on his mug shot. mmm ---

@iiandyiiii i hope you don’t mind this effort. I’ve never posted a table before, at least not correctly, so let’s see if this works. I made a quick spreadsheet with the pounds (whole numbers, no fractions) and the user names who’ve chosen particular amounts thus far, with my guess at 299#. The lowest guess in the table is 240; the highest is 319. Feel free to copy the table into your new post when you add your guess. Also feel free to correct any formatting to make it easier to see. I couldn’t get the thing to center justify all the entries. | Pounds | Pounds | Pounds | Pounds | Pounds | Pounds | Pounds | Pounds | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **User** | **User** | **User** | **User** | **User** | **User** | **User** | **User** | | 240 | 250 | 260 | 270 | 280 | 290 | 300 | 310 | | — | — | — | — | — | — | China\_Guy | — | | 241 | 251 | 261 | 271 | 281 | 291 | 301 | 311 | | — | — | — | — | — | — | — | — | | 242 | 252 | 262 | 272 | 282 | 292 | 302 | 312 | | — | — | — | Mean\_Mr.Mustard | — | — | — | — | | 243 | 253 | 263 | 273 | 283 | 293 | 303 | 313 | | — | — | — | — | — | — | — | — | | 244 | 254 | 264 | 274 | 284 | 294 | 304 | 314 | | — | — | — | Railer13 | Happy\_Lendervedder | — | — | — | | 245 | 255 | 265 | 275 | 285 | 295 | 305 | 315 | | Walken\_After\_Midnight | enipla | — | — | — | — | — | — | | 246 | 256 | 266 | 276 | 286 | 296 | 306 | 316 | | — | — | — | — | — | — | — | — | | 247 | 257 | 267 | 277 | 287 | 297 | 307 | 317 | | — | — | SuntanLotion | — | iiandyiiii | — | — | — | | 248 | 258 | 268 | 278 | 288 | 298 | 308 | 318 | | — | — | — | Fear\_Itself | — | — | — | — | | 249 | 259 | 269 | 279 | 289 | 299 | 309 | 319 | | — | — | — | — | — | Monty | — | — | ---

1. That’s based on my partner’s height (6 foot even) and fattest weight (220), and how much fatter Trump looks than that. ---
