Donald Trump, "I'm 6'3"."




President Xi is reported to be 5’11”. Some reports have him listed @ 5’9”.

No wonder Trump kept talking about how tall President Xi is.

If Trump told me it was dark and cold @ midnight on Christmas Day in Fairbanks, Alaska I would put
on shorts, sun screen, and flip flops.

Now I'm 5' 11" tall. I'm 80. I don't say I'm the height I was at 20. But then again, nobody asks me except my physician's assistant. I let her use the height measurer, so my actual height is in my records. I corrected my driver's license last year, too. Same with weight. I never weigh myself. Once a year, though, I stand on the doctor's scale. I recently saw my doctor. I'm down 15 lb. from last year. I don't mind. I have a little old man pot belly. If I lose a few pounds, my pants aren't so tight.

Or maybe he just likes lying about everything, because it makes him feel smart to be able to fool everyone.
