Brett Kavanaugh, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Marsha Blackburn and Barron Trump are all trending. This is the only time a Trump will ever be the least offensive person in the line up. Barron's trending because he turned 16. Also he's 6'7" which must make Trump livid, so there's that.

Trump did not apologize for mocking a disabled man as far as I know. But, for me, Sarah will not be forgiven [let her God do that]

Readers discuss a resurfaced article from December 2019 about former White House press secretary Sarah Sanders mocking President Joe Biden’s stutter during the a presidential debate

JUST IN: Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) just attacked Ketanji Brown Jackson by suggesting she supports Griswold v. Connecticut (1965), which outlawed prosecuting married couples for using contraception. It is the basis for the right to privacy & led to Roe v. Wade and marriage equality.

It has ALWAYS been about outlawing birth control.
This has been known by anyone involved with the womens’ reproductive rights movement for the last forty years. Abortion was the route to Griswald. Young women… take note.

Anyone who thinks that the morning after pill will be their easy work-around is not understanding the foundation of the Roe decision and that is Griswald.

How far back in the Drumpf line would you have to go to find someone that tall?

How far back in the Knauss line?

How far back in their UPS drivers line? Or the Milkman, or Electrician, etc. etc. etc.

Now I’m not insinuating Melania cheated on Trumpy, far from it.

I’m stating it is a definite possibility.

That kind of height is genetic, unless he has gigantism. We've got both in our extended family.

That will be revealed.

Melanie’s one redeeming character trait is that she’s been very protective of him as he’s been growing.

Once he’s an “adult” that bubble will disappear. If he does have a disability (disabilities?) she could further elevate her reputation by using her status to work towards disability rights.

Doubt that happens but heh, a body can dream…

He doesn't have the bone growth if giagantism. (Knew a guy in college that was diagnosed with it. He was 6' tall his sophomore year of HS, then grew 3 inches per year for the next 4 years. After he was already 15.
His bones were heavy & thick, his jaw was very lantern shape, and he no longer looked much like his dad. His face structure changed & his fingers got really, really thick. If he had a ring, I could have put it on my thumb and it would fallen right off if I put my arm down. He became increasingly less coordinated. (He was a pretty good high school athlete.)
He stopped growing at around 7'5". He died at around 50. Mostly heart problems.
Typically, people who grow tall fast stop growing sooner than most. I was 5'7" at 17, but 5'9" at 20.
He very well could be done growing now that he's 18.

I hope he’s stopped growing, though. Being taller than the norm can be difficult.
Gigantism in our extended family was caused by a tumor on pituitary iirc when he was an adult.

Mon Mar 21, 2022, 05:27 PM
Mar 2022

That's what the guy I know had. It was discovered years after he quit growing & the surgery was done to remove it. IIRC, it was benign! I think he was close to 30 by then.
I lost contact with him shortly after that, as he moved to somewhere in New England for his job. (He was an accountant.)
I don't know if they didn't think to look for a tumor in the early stages, or if was so tiny they couldn't see it. There were no CT or PT scans, or MRI in those days. Just xrays.
He was a really funny & fun guy. Was very much a shame.

When he was younger, I didn't think he looked anything like Chump. But in recent pics, the resemblance to dear old dad is marked. I can really see it when I compare Barron's current looks with pics of Dastardly Donald as a teenager.

Hopefully, Melania's genes will keep him him from looking TOO much like IQ45. He still has some maturing to do, so time will tell.

Mon Mar 21, 2022, 02:04 PM

in the late 90s being extremely tall!

I had a business associate in Trump Tower toward the end of my career, and used to visit there on a weekly basis. One of the doormen was extremely tall, I'd say 6'7" - 6'9", and some people say there was talk of Malaria and he having an affair.

I can't vouch for the veracity of this rumored tryst, but some people say it lasted several years. I remember him as clear as day, and my companions remarked about how incredibly tall he was for a NYC doorman. They're usually on the shorter, stockier side.

I wonder if Donald was aware of this?

I have no way of knowing how long he worked there, but he was quite young (30-40 yrs. old) so unless there was some disciplinary action (ahem) or he found a better position I imagine he was.

In this day and age the number of people whom don't use birth control (outside of the Quiverfull movement) has to be pretty infinitesimally small. But I guess that, until something actually happens where they suddenly can't get it, it's all just probably abstract to most people I expect?
