Former President Donald Trump plans to turn himself in and be processed at the Fulton County jail on Thursday, following his agreement earlier Monday to a $200,000 bond and other release conditions.

bets on his real height and weight?

I, for one, am offended that you are implying White House doc and totally non-partisan dude Ronny Jackson would have been embellishing things when he said Trump was a paragon of mental and physical health.

I’m 6’1” (186cm) barefoot and measured. Trump claims to be 6’3” (190cm).

I stood next to a wax statue of him at Madame Tussaud’s, which is famous for its exact replicas, and I was comfortably an inch taller than that statue and it was in heeled shoes (I was wearing flat-soled Connie’s), so Trump is 6’0” max, but my guess is he’s just under - maybe 5’11” (183cm).

Interesting. But to accept this would mean also accepting that he doesn't have baby hands and I just won't do it. No sir.

Nah, he’s taller than 5’9”, but he’s definitely not the 6’3” he claims to be. Not even close. I’d bet my last dollar that barefooted he’s pretty close to 5’11”.

I am 5'9" and just measured my hand, 7.25". Confirmed. Also what idiot would be ashamed of being 69" tall? Amazing height.

and here I am at 5'8", so close to greatness...

Well guess what? You’re 4’20”! Congrats, now go get high, you stoner, you!

$10 he personally call them out for inflating his weight, bad lighting, and etc.

You can agree to a bail amount before being arrested? What the fuck? I don't know why but this makes me really angry.

He's just a poor little baby who committed some light treason, give him a break 🥺

I don’t know why but this makes me really angry.

Oh, I can think of a few reasons why.

Also his bond is lower than what it is for petty criminals

Damn sorry to the cop that checks him in...

ACAB includes the guy on desk duty who has to process the first former president of the USA to ever be held accountable for his crimes.

Just pretend you don't know who he is. It's a very basic mind game but it'll work on him.

And what's your name then?

I meant the guy that has to watch him spread his asshole during check in.

Why? They bought him

In 2016, there were about 7,000 contributions from police. In 2020, there were more than 46,000, totaling more than $2.75 million.

Eh - surely this is because one party (rightly) had a platform of cutting police funding. Selfish explains most of this, surely?

This means he not longer can run for president, right?.... RIGHT!?

There is the Disqualification Clause of the 14th amendment:

"No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any state, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability."

So, let's see how indictment number, uh, whatever the insurrection one was, goes.

In the u.s if you're a criminal you can't work at McDonald's, but you can be president
