Knowing my own weight I’m gonna say easily over 300.

315

I’m saying close to 300 on his weight.  
297 lbs.  
On a Big Mac week.

Height is 6’1" and weight is 305.

They let Giuliani self-report as weighing 230, so I’m gonna say Loser Donald sticks with 239.

I’ll say 274. Trump is a big guy but I think he’s down a bit from his biggest.

For some and undoubtedly twisted reason I’m seeing a HHGTTG reference regarding Bethselamin, bodyweight and the importance of receipts.

_Kolak\_of\_Twilo_ and _RickJay_ chose numbers already claimed. _Smapti_ went one under my bottom guess. I really didn’t think anyone would go with that, but I do see their reasoning: if the jail lets Trump self-report, he’s going to report whatever he believes is the perfect height/weight combination for a living Adonis.

I’ll take the even 270.

</div>

He’s ~1.85m? (6ft 1in)

A BMI of 35 (morbidly obese) would put him @264lbs that is a floor for my estimation.

He’s doing all kinds of weird shit to appear slimmer. I guess some of it works so I’m going with 310lbs.

I’l take 277 for 6 feet, no inches (at all).

I’d also point out that it seems unlikely to me if they do weigh you that they’d insist you do so with all your clothes off. A suit of clothes weighs five pounds, more with shoes.

I’ll go with 287. Will they put orange man in orange jailbird garb for the mug shot? That would be so priceless, the eternal meme.

This was my assumption as to what was going to happen. I’m not sure why, just had a hunch at least to avoid the circus. I’ll guess an even 240.
