Former President Donald Trump was arrested and arraigned on Tuesday in New York.
Trump was indicted on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records related to his alleged role in hush money payments to multiple women during his 2016 presidential campaign. He pled not guilty to those charges.
As part of the booking process, Trump’s measurements were taken. While the former President has long tried to overplay his height and underplay his weight, the reality was revealed on Tuesday. Trump came in at 6’1″ and 270 pounds.
The revelation of his measurements also coincided with NFL Draft season, so lots of sports fans were able to use those numbers and make some fun reactions related to whether or not Trump would be worth your favorite NFL team taking in the first round.
“Donald Trump officially measured in at 6’1″, 270,” said Dave Kluge.” If he runs a sub-4.5, he’d comp historically to Dwight Freeney and may have a chance to go in the first round of the NFL Draft.”
Donald Trump: 6’1″, 270 lbs Aaron Donald: 6’1″, 284 lbs found his comp,” said Jeremy Layton.
“Some teams have now taken him off their Draft boards..” former NFL GM Andrew Brandt wrote.
“I’m afraid 6’3” 270 is too small to protect my franchise quarterback Day 3 grade,” another fan joked.
We’re sure that if someone asked Trump about it, he’d say he could compete in the NFL today if he truly wanted to.
