Social Media Sleuth Exposes Donald Trump’s Height and Weight Claims with Side-by-Side Photo of CJ Stroud

In April 2025, a social media post sparked widespread debate and skepticism about President Donald Trump’s reported height and weight, reigniting a long-standing discussion about the accuracy of his physical measurements.

The controversy began when an X user, @Coste1Costello
, posted a side-by-side comparison of Trump and Houston Texans quarterback CJ Stroud, noting that both are reportedly the same height (6 feet 3 inches) and weight (224 pounds).

The post, which included a photo and the caption, “Trump’s ‘doctor’ just claimed he is 6′ 3″ and 224 lbs. Do you believe it?” went viral, amassing significant engagement and prompting a flurry of reactions across social media platforms.

This article delves into the origins of the controversy, the details of Trump’s reported measurements, the role of social media in amplifying the debate, and the broader context of public fascination with Trump’s physical stats.

The Spark: A Viral X Post
On April 13, 2025, the X account @Coste1Costello

, which identifies as supportive of Democratic causes, posted a provocative comparison that caught the attention of sports fans, political commentators, and casual observers alike.

The post juxtaposed an image of President Trump with one of CJ Stroud, the 23-year-old NFL quarterback known for his athletic build. Stroud, officially measured at the NFL Combine as 6 feet 3 inches and 218 pounds (with recent reports suggesting he weighs around 224 pounds), was used as a benchmark to question Trump’s reported measurements from his latest physical exam.

The caption challenged the credibility of Trump’s physician and invited viewers to judge for themselves whether the 78-year-old president could plausibly share the same physique as a professional athlete in his prime.

The post quickly gained traction, with thousands of likes, retweets, and comments. Many users expressed disbelief, pointing to the visible differences in body composition between the two men.

Stroud’s lean, muscular frame contrasted sharply with Trump’s appearance, leading to humorous and skeptical remarks. For example, political content creator Harry Sisson joined the conversation, comparing Trump’s measurements to those of Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown (6 feet 1 inch, 227 pounds), further fueling the debate.

Trump’s Reported Measurements
The controversy stemmed from the White House’s release of President Trump’s annual physical results on April 11, 2025, conducted at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland. The exam, overseen by Dr.

Sean Barbabella, reportedly took five hours and included “every test you can imagine.” The report described Trump as being in “excellent” health, highlighting his active lifestyle, frequent golf victories, and perfect scores on cognitive tests.

Most notably, it listed Trump as 6 feet 3 inches tall and weighing 224 pounds, with a resting heart rate of 62 beats per minute and two medications for cholesterol control.

These figures raised eyebrows for several reasons. First, the height of 6 feet 3 inches suggested that Trump, at 78 years old, had either maintained or increased his height since 2016, when he was reported as 6 feet 2 inches in some records.

This defied medical expectations, as most people lose about an inch of height between ages 30 and 70 due to spinal compression and other age-related factors.

Second, the weight of 224 pounds was significantly lower than previous reports, such as his 2018 physical (239 pounds) or his 2023 New York booking record (240 pounds).

The combination of these measurements placed Trump’s body mass index (BMI) at approximately 28, just below the obesity threshold of 30, prompting speculation about whether the numbers were accurate or strategically reported.

Historical Context: Trump’s Measurements Under Scrutiny
The debate over Trump’s height and weight is not new.

It has been a recurring topic since his first presidential campaign in 2016, often fueled by his own public statements and the media’s fascination with his health.

Below is a timeline of key moments:

2016: Trump’s campaign released a doctor’s note claiming he was 6 feet 3 inches and 236 pounds, placing him close to the obesity threshold.

Social media skeptics, dubbed “girthers,” questioned the numbers, comparing Trump to athletes with similar measurements.

2018: White House physician Dr. Ronny Jackson reported Trump as 6 feet 3 inches and 239 pounds, again just below the obesity cutoff.

Critics noted that the figures seemed tailored to avoid an obesity classification. It was later revealed that Jackson’s glowing health assessment was partly dictated by Trump himself.

2023: Following Trump’s arrest in New York in April, booking records listed him as 6 feet 2 inches and 240 pounds.

Three months later, after his surrender at Fulton County Jail in Georgia, he was recorded as 6 feet 3 inches and 215 pounds.

The discrepancies—particularly the 25-pound weight loss and one-inch height gain in a short period—sparked widespread mockery.

Social media users compared Trump to NFL quarterbacks like Lamar Jackson and CJ Stroud, noting the stark differences in physique.
