WASHINGTON, DC: Don­ald Trump’s lat­est sit-down with Fox News wasn’t sup­posed to be about his height, but thanks to some rather telling visu­als, that’s exact­ly what peo­ple are talk­ing about

The US pres­i­dent appeared along­side his daugh­ter-in-law, Lara Trump, in teas­er shots shared by the White House social media accounts

Inter­net gets sus­pi­cious about Don­ald Trump’s real height on social media

Social media sleuths quick­ly noticed some­thing was off. Despite the POTUS claim­ing to be 6’3″ or 6’4″, Lara — who report­ed­ly stands at 5’11″ — looked notice­ably taller than him on cam­era.

Lara Trump looks taller than her father-in-law on FOX right now. Her chair seems big­ger too. Such an odd look!! Also, Trump should­n’t slump but…” one post­ed on X.

So if Trump is 6 feet and 3 inch­es, accord­ing to him… How tall is Lara Trump here? Like, Trump is look­ing very small in that chair some­how. Like if I’m look­ing at Halfling Trump and his human daugh­ter-in-law,” anoth­er wrote.

I didn’t know Lara Trump was this tall … She tow­ers over Trump!” a third remarked.

“Is Lara Trump 7 feet tall, or is Don­ald shrink­ing?” anoth­er won­dered.

If Lara Trump is 5’11, then why does she look so much taller than a 6’3 Don­ald Trump? It’s almost like he lied about his height, his weight, his busi­ness­es, Epstein files,” anoth­er chimed in.

God­damn, I didn’t know how tall @LaraLeaTrump is. Makes the pres­i­dent look small and weak lmaooooo,” read a com­ment.

Not the first time Donald Trump’s height has been called into question

Don­ald Trump’s claimed height has been under the micro­scope for a while now.

Back in Decem­ber, social media lit up again after Trump was spot­ted stand­ing next to Prince Williamin Paris. The footage was from their meet­ing at the reopen­ing of Notre Dame — Trump’s first inter­na­tion­al trip after defeat­ing Kamala Har­ris the pre­vi­ous month— and showed the British roy­al (who’s 6’3″) tow­er­ing over Trump.

The clip went viral almost instant­ly as peo­ple accused the pres­i­dent of inflat­ing his stats.

In anoth­er instance, when Wal­ter Reed physi­cian Capt Sean P Barba­bel­la dropped Trump’s health report ear­li­er this year, crit­ics imme­di­ate­ly took to social media to dis­pute the list­ed height.

Don­ald Trump puts out the Jef­frey Epstein probe fires

On Sat­ur­day after­noon, he jumped online to defend Attor­ney Gen­er­al Pam Bon­di, who’s catch­ing heat over the DOJ’s recent con­clu­sions sur­round­ing Jef­frey Epstein’s death.

The Jus­tice Depart­ment offi­cial­ly closed the case, reaf­firm­ing it was a sui­cide — not foul play — and released a 10-hour video show­ing Epstein’s final hours at the Met­ro­pol­i­tan Cor­rec­tion­al Cen­ter while await­ing tri­al for sex traf­fick­ing.

They also shot down the decades-long con­spir­a­cy the­o­ry about a mys­te­ri­ous “client list,” writ­ing in a memo that there is “no cred­i­ble evi­dence” such a list of “promi­nent indi­vid­u­als” even exists — let alone one used for black­mail.

This didn’t sit well with some major MAGA voic­es. For­mer Trump ally and tech bil­lion­aire Elon Muskand far-right fire­brand Lau­ra Loomer were among those call­ing foul. Then came uncon­firmed reports of poten­tial res­ig­na­tions with­in Trump’s Jus­tice Depart­ment in light of the con­tro­ver­sy.

Trump took to Truth Social to vent.  “What’s going on with my ‘boys’ and, in some cas­es, ‘gals?’” he asked Sat­ur­day. “They’re all going after Attor­ney Gen­er­al Pam Bon­di, who is doing a FANTASTIC JOB! We’re on one Team, MAGA, and I don’t like what’s hap­pen­ing.”

We have a PERFECT Admin­is­tra­tion, THE TALK OF THE WORLD, and ‘self­ish peo­ple’ are try­ing to hurt it, all over a guy who nev­er dies, Jef­frey Epstein. For years, it’s Epstein, over and over again,” he con­tin­ued, before sug­gest­ing the Epstein-relat­ed doc­u­ments were part of a grand con­spir­a­cy orches­trat­ed by his polit­i­cal ene­mies.

Why are we giv­ing pub­lic­i­ty to Files writ­ten by Oba­ma, Crooked Hillary, Comey, Bren­nan, and the Losers and Crim­i­nals of the Biden

Admin­is­tra­tion.….. They cre­at­ed the Epstein Files, just like they cre­at­ed the FAKE Hillary Clinton/Christopher Steele Dossier that they used on me, and now my so-called ‘friends’ are play­ing right into their hands,” Trump alleged.
