Is it possible the mug shot has been Photoshopped? His face looks much thinner than it does in other photos and has fewer wrinkles. The left side (his right side) looks warped somehow. ---

> [@nelliebly](#): > > His face looks much thinner than it does in other photos and has fewer wrinkles. The left side (his right side) looks warped somehow. T-Rump actually looked to me lately like he’d lost a bit of weight recently. He didn’t look as bulbous as usual. I can only hope that maybe he’s actually stressed out over the reality of his upcoming legal problems. He’s still at least 250 lbs. Probably a LOT more. ---

Who will prevail? The picture here shows Trump and GWB. Bush is listed at 5’11.5” which seems accurate when you see him next to his taller father. You can also see the several inch heel Trump is wearing. ---

Not in Fulton County Georgia. They literally just ask you basic questions. They do give you a jumpsuit but they don’t do any examination unless you request and require medical assistance. There is no medical exam for the jail. You can talk to a doctor but I wouldn’t count on anything complex to be handled. Several inmates die in Fulton county a year due to neglect and other issues. If you disrespect the guards on intake, you might get hog tied and beat down. If intake is backed up, you may need to sleep in the intake cell , concrete ground , overnight, but they will give you a turkey sandwich, mustard packets, and m&m cookies if you’re in intake long enough. Fulton county jails are not a great place, but unlike worse US jails, they do have air conditioning. ---

> [@enipla](#): > > Reminds me of when my large barrel chested dad had to put on a size medium wetsuit. I crewed for my buddy on his Hobie when his wife was unable due to pregnancy. She’d already gotten a wetsuit for the event. I was lean enough then to wear her pregnancy wetsuit, which caused some laughs. ---

In about 2000, I weighed 281 at about 6’ (I maxed out at just under 6’1" but had probably lost a bit by then). I looked about as bulky as Trump, so if Trump is actually 6’3", he is over 300 lb. But he is probably more like 6’, 280 lb. ---

You do you. But I would prefer not to think about Trump’s humidity. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/guess-trumps-weight/989013.md?page=9) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/guess-trumps-weight/989013.md?page=11)
