Just heard news give his height and weight.
I’ve heard the media say he’s obese like 850 times over last 48 hours.

That's definitely overweight. Not sure about obese.

Dude, he’s obese by any standard, and it’s not even close. America has gotten so fat you can’t tell anymore.

DE or middle linebacker?

That works out to a BMI of 30.5, so he's just over the threshold.
Posted on 10/3/20 at 7:08 pm to LuckyTiger
He’s about 25-30 lbs over his optimal weight....I would not consider Trump very obese. lol

He's no "runway supermodel".

He’s fricking obese. It is what it is. He eats fast food every day, so he is unhealthy as hell too

Obese is a medical term. Using BMI, (which is imperfect) he meets the standard. If a 6'3" 244 lbs dude named Donald Smith was admitted to any hospital in the country, all of them would code obesity as co-morbidity into his medical record as standard practice.

BMI is not the best metric to use. I'm 6'2 and should be 180 pounds or so according to it (I was at one point and looked malnourished).
Doesn't take into account body composition. I doubt Trump's 244 is mostly muscle, but our media takes any chance to negatively paint the president.

First term Bill Clinton was a fat slob at 41 years old. Much, much fatter than 74 year old Trump. I don't remember the media repeatedly calling him obese.
And Trump has an incredible energy level. He's the hardest working President of my lifetime by a large margin.

Perhaps these charts are right then, medically speaking.
When I hear obese, I don’t think of 6’3” 244. I think overweight. Obese I think would be something like 6’3” 275. Morbid would be something like 6’3” 300.

I'm 6'3" 245 and I'm 30 and I'm considered obese. It's literally technical by the definition.

You are supposed to look thin. You shouldn’t be eating for pleasure. You should eat for survival. Take that attitude and you won’t be fat.

100% If a guy is 5’10 which is average height, they want you to be between 130-170 to be “optimal” anything over 170 is overweight lol. Get the frick out of here with that.
