Just like last January, Trump’s height is 6’3’’, but his weight has slightly changed, as he has picked up a few pounds, and is now officially considered obese at 243lb (110 kg).

The fact that POTUS is two inches taller than his predecessor Barack Obama has raised many eyebrows among Twitter sceptics, who didn’t hesitate to accuse the White House of lying about Trump’s medical results:
It's relatively inconsequential, but the fact that the White House blatantly lies even on @realDonaldTrump's medical report is just insane. Lying is the new norm.

Also weird — they didn't lie enough this time to keep him out of the 'obese' category #PresidentObese https://t.co/Z8m8UpHFgH
6’2” tops, probably more like 6’1” at his age. And 275 lbs easy, maybe closer to 300.

Social media users dug up photos of Trump and Obama standing side by side at the former’s inauguration, and they show that the two are more or less the same height:
Trump is not 6'3". For reference, Obama is 6'1". They look the same height. pic.twitter.com/BelX2Rwwqs

Again, Trump lies about his height.

He is NOT 6’ 3”.
He MIGHT be 6’ 1”.
Here are some comparisons in the excellent photos below:
Obama: 6’ 1”
Trudeau: 6’ 2”
Jeb Bush: 6’ 3” pic.twitter.com/yTUp6EFt5n
Others poked fun at the fact that he’s now classed as obese, with a BMI of just over 30:

Some netizens, however, rushed to Trump’s defence, saying that people should stop “fat-shaming” the commander-in-chief:
Can’t wait for all the snowflakes to revel in Trump being labeled “obese”, after crying about fat shaming and thin privilege. https://t.co/vJxPvVJg2X

Can you imagine if this headline were for Hilary Clinton and the amount of backlash @politico would have for “fat shaming” etc?! LOL #DoubleStandard @realDonaldTrump pic.twitter.com/qtOj0r13Jw

So, we're "fat-shaming" now?
— The Legendary SMYLZ (@LegendarySMYLZ) 15 February 2019
Is that what we're doing?
Why are you fat shaming Trump? It's 2019 and people shouldn't be judged by their weight.

Many Trump critics have constantly been speculating about the president’s health, claiming he might be physically or mentally unfit to hold office. This year’s report highlighted that Trump is “in very good health”, with Conley writing that he anticipated that POTUS “will remain so for the duration of his Presidency, and beyond”.
