Trump, who is repeatedly mocked for his morbid obesity, and the size of his rear end–not to mention the claim that he weighs about 240 pounds–something that most people do not believe–has taken to mocking Joe Biden for his physique, brazenly boasting that he has a “much better body” than the President and that he could beat him in a fight. This line of attack, though, is one Trump has gone to before.
“He’s got a consultant somewhere — this is the worst consultant in politics — that thinks he looks good in a bathing suit, right? He spends so much time at the beach. I mean, how do you do that?” Trump told rally-goers in Waterloo, Iowa, on Saturday.
“And, you know, I have a much better body than him. But I’m not really sure that I want to expose it, with the sun blaring down and the sand, the surf, the wind you know. I mean, you know, it’s not a pretty sight.”
Trump, who is only 3 years younger, ridiculed Biden, who enjoys getaways to Delaware, for being “very, very old” and alleged he could not actually carry lightweight beach chairs meant for “a child.”
Donald Trump claims to be at 6’3” in height and weigh around 243 pounds, but estimates go as high as 300 pounds.; Biden is 6’0” tall weighs in at around 159 pounds.
Additionally, Trump touched on comments made by Biden in 2018 about how if they were in high school, he would take Trump “behind the gym and beat the hell out of him.”
“I think I could go like this,” Trump said before blowing air out of his mouth, “and he’d go down.”
During his presidency there was widespread disbelief that the White House physician, Ronnie Jackson, had genuinely found Trump to be in good health, given his lifestyle and obesity, and later, it was found that Trump himself had written his own letter and had it signed by Jackson.
