        Everybody standing there, trying not to breathe another whiff of his swamp ass, and Melania’s grown immune over the years.

      I’m exactly 6’1”, measured barefoot against a wall. I’ve been the same height forever.

      I stood next to a Madame Tussauds wax replica of Trump in Amsterdam and I was easily 2 inches taller than it. I was wearing Connies. It was in lifted healed boots.

      There is no way Trump is 6’3” as he claims. None. On his best day, barefoot, the dude is scraping 6 feet but I’d bet my last dollar he’s closer to 5’11”.

        While I’m sure the hair was more realistic, I’m not sure Madam Tussauds is the most accurate source for trumps height.

        He’s probably 6’, but only when his diaper is empty and not weighing him down.

          I’m pretty sure Madame Tussauds claim to fame is its anatomically correct dimensions of its statues.

      Yea I came in to say the same thing. There’s no reality in the entire multiverse thats got Trump, without his heels, over 6ft.

      I know superficially and perhaps subconsciously height garners respect, but theres only one type of guy, and I’ve seen several examples, that just fucking dominate the room. Maybe they got the maxed out rizz stat, idk, but that’s the short king with the tall hottie on his arm, ala Cruise/Kidman. This is all lizard brain stuff, of course, it can be consciously overridden, it’s just usually not. Power dynamics grind as the male to male summation is essentially short circuited, all because shortKing shows up openly prevalidated. And that guy, aware enough to take advantage, is capable of persuading pockets to his goals.

          I wasn’t talking about Trump having rizz, thats about the trope. I assumed the Cruise/Kidman exemplifies the dynamic. Melania isnt taller than Trump anyway.

          I brought it up solely to shine a brighter light on Trumps insecurities, sorry if that wasn’t clear.
