But seriously, I’m sick of these stupid headlines. Write an article when you know the details not when you are speculating on them. There is nothing new here.
Almost 3 in 4 Americans are fat. It’s inevitable that plenty of them are in denial about this simple fact.
I doubt they’re all bad people as it goes. Everybody’s at least a bit vain, insecure or prideful. Whether it’s adding an extra inch, deducting a few pounds, pretending you’re more succesful than you actually are, lying to yourself and others about that thing you did, touching up your photos or leaving your exact age a secret.
Crucially however, the overwhelming majority of those people who lie (to themselves and others) about their weight, aren’t convicted rapists, traitors, or fascists.
Claiming he’s 215 is a lot more than “a few pounds” and I’d bet the majority of people at least make an attempt at good faith when filling out official paperwork.
You know what it is? Lazy. They could be doing some proper investigative journalism, but that costs time and often money.
So instead they write an article about Trump being fat. We know he’s fat. We know he’s lying about his weight.
But let’s be real. He’s hardly alone. The vast majority of Americans are fat (something like 70%), and almost 40% are obese. I assume many of these people are also in denial about it. How are they supposed to feel about this article?
Hell, google the author of this article. He’s also overweight. It’s not unlikely he’s also in denial given he chose to write this article. That isn’t an attack. Life happens, you’re busy, and if you’re not careful you get fat. Invariably you’re a bit insecure/vain about it. That’s only human.
Let he who is not fat throw the first stick of butter.
When it comes to Trump, him being fat is the least of his crimes.
Let me tell you too.

Also, the weight of some American fraudster is hardly newsworthy, and the connection to politics is slim at best.
Slim, unlike that wastline… phew.
Though it is relevant tangentially in that it’s a great indicator of how petty, dishonest, and unworthy of power he is.
Pol Pot was slim.
Weight is a poor indicator of character.
I think he meant the lying about weight.

People with zero creativity are all too happy to make momentary buck off the momentum of the moment.

and here we are engaging with the content. fml
It’s overdone.
The one thing I would add is that he got to get the mug in a suit and tie Typically, more casual attire is involved.
