Santiago/Getty Images ## What People Are Saying On social media, people have taken to X, formerly [Twitter](https://www.newsweek.com/topic/twitter), to share their thoughts on Trump's latest statistics. Political content creator Harry Sisson, who is listed as a Democrat in his X bio, wrote, "Donald Trump's new physical claims he's 6'2 and 224 pounds. For comparison, this is A.J. Brown—a wide receiver for the Eagles. He's 6'1 and 227 pounds. I'll let you decide if they look similar." His remark garnered 1.4 million views, 20,000 likes and 4,200 comments. In the replies on both posts, many defended Trump, while others scoffed at the numbers. "Muscle mass is more dense than fat mass," ImmersedGolf pointed out, seemingly implying that it's possible for both Trump and Brown to be similar heights and weights. "Muscles \[weigh\] more than fat. One has a lot more muscles. What's hard?" Duke3God wrote in a note with 67,400 views and 149 likes underneath Sisson's post. "Our commander in chief is solid," self-proclaimed "ultra MAGA" account trumplove63 wrote. "Muscle vs. fat? Is this supposed to be a 'gotcha?'" BraedenSorbo chimed in. "On God's green earth, Trump is nowhere near 6'3," X user Heavyy wrote. "I mean they know we have eyes right?" celtichead asked. "This country so full of s\*\*\* it's comical," YunglordKari added. "This is so funny!! Hahaha. There is no way in hell he weighs 224. Hilarious. They are idiots to think anyone believes this!!" mikesheetz said. Last year, [reporter Jules Suzdaltsev converted a photo of Trump](https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-height-weight-barron-1862143) standing next to several of his family members into pixels and posted it on X. According to his calculations, the Republican is "\*exactly\* 5'11." [In the image from the funeral](https://www.newsweek.com/melania-trump-mother-amalija-knavs-funeral-details-1861826) of the mother of the president's wife, [Melania Trump](https://www.newsweek.com/topic/melania-trump), Donald Trump posed with her alongside their son [Barron Trump](https://www.newsweek.com/topic/barron-trump), and Melania Trump's father, Viktor Knavs. "This pic of Barron & Trump makes it trivially easy to compare their heights. Trump is 458 pixels tall, Barron is 508 pixels tall (you can check). If Trump were 6'3, Barron would be a hair short of 7ft tall. But Barron is exactly 6'7..." Suzdaltsev said. Following his physical, Donald Trump told reporters on Friday that he "wanted to be a little different" than former President [Joe Biden](https://www.newsweek.com/topic/joe-biden). "I took a cognitive test. And, I don't know what to tell you other than I got every answer right. I took just a lot of different tests, having to do with the heart, having to do with other things, and I think you'll find that I'm—they're gonna release the report on Sunday, I think you'll find it very good." *Correction, 8/29/2025, 10:00 a.m. ET: This article was updated to remove a quote from the parody X account "Rep.

[In the image from the funeral](https://www.newsweek.com/melania-trump-mother-amalija-knavs-funeral-details-1861826) of the mother of the president's wife, [Melania Trump](https://www.newsweek.com/topic/melania-trump), Donald Trump posed with her alongside their son [Barron Trump](https://www.newsweek.com/topic/barron-trump), and Melania Trump's father, Viktor Knavs. "This pic of Barron & Trump makes it trivially easy to compare their heights. Trump is 458 pixels tall, Barron is 508 pixels tall (you can check). If Trump were 6'3, Barron would be a hair short of 7ft tall. But Barron is exactly 6'7..." Suzdaltsev said. Following his physical, Donald Trump told reporters on Friday that he "wanted to be a little different" than former President [Joe Biden](https://www.newsweek.com/topic/joe-biden).

I took just a lot of different tests, having to do with the heart, having to do with other things, and I think you'll find that I'm—they're gonna release the report on Sunday, I think you'll find it very good." *Correction, 8/29/2025, 10:00 a.m. ET: This article was updated to remove a quote from the parody X account "Rep. Jack Kimble."*
