‘Girther’ movement is born as sceptics are bigly dubious of Trump’s height and weight
‘I will give US$100,000 to Trump’s favourite charity if he will step on an accurate scale’
Weight, weight, don’t tell him. From the racist notion that Barack Obama wasn’t born in America to the dangerous, completely unfounded suggestion that vaccines cause autism, US President Donald Trump has been an avid fan of conspiracy theories, but he’s now found himself at the centre of heavy debate online.
MSNBC host Chris Hayes put a label on those with hefty hesitation to believe the Obama appointee’s assessment, tweeting, “Has anyone coined ‘girther’ for those who believe the president weighs more than his doctor reports?”
Jackson told reporters in the White House briefing room that Trump has “incredible genes, I just assume,” when questioned about how it’s possible someone who eats so much fast food could be considered “very healthy,” but some still doubted that’s the case considering how he stacks up against athletes of similar size.
“Colin Kaepernick is 6’4 230. Trump is supposedly 6’3 235. Something isn’t adding up,” Matt Rogers tweeted.
