TFG said he doesn't 'have time to lose weight' after Dr. Oz advised him he was too heavy

Former President Donald Trump said that he doesn't "have time to lose weight" despite advice from Dr. Mehmet Oz, who he recently endorsed in the Pennsylvania Senate race.

"Can you believe I weigh 208 [pounds]? Now maybe a little more," Trump told a crowd in a video posted on social media.

"Dr. Oz said 'you should lose weight.' I said 'I don't have time to lose weight!'"




It is not clear what event the former president was speaking at when he made the comments. According to The Independent, he was talking after his rally in North Carolina, last week.

Transposing digits again? More likely he weighs 280. I'm not as tall as him, have less girth and weigh more than 208.

But I understand he's busy. There are buckets of KFC that won't eat themselves.

Fat is less dense than muscle and bones, but I'd think he'd need to be almost 100% fat to only weigh 208. He doesn't move around like a snail, so there has to be a frame with muscle in there somewhere.

3. Playboy Buddy Rose lives

Playboy Buddy Rose was a professional wrestler, mostly a heel (bad guy), who worked a lot of local circuits around the country. When he first came on the scene, he was pretty well put together, befitting his "ladies' man" nickname. He was introduced as weighing 214 pounds (if memory serves). As his career went on, he packed on the weight, and was more a parody of his persona. The running gag was that Rose was always introduced as weighing 214 pounds and would threaten the ring announcer if the announcer didn't stick to the script. By the end of his time as a pro wrestler, he was on the far side of 300 pounds, still billed as 214 pounds.

Clearly the former guy has patterned his life after Playboy Buddy Rose.

Eat, dump, eat ... and eat some more ... fatty foods, fried foods, sugar, etc. Stuff your mouth all day long and don't exercise.

I only eat when I’m hungry, not to make up for missing something else. I’ve lost 45lbs in a month. It takes being honest with ones self. Trump is not capable of that. Admittedly, I still have to tighten up loose skin but I’m a lot better now than a month ago.

Now that we know what his ass all by itself weighs, I suggest a good laxative to rid himself of the now-impacted Lindsey Graham.

Seems like eating less would free up more time. It takes time to eat desserts after meals. It takes time to eat snacks. Drop those and he would have even more time for how busy he supposedly is.

Or, he could try covid again. He lost weight then. And, according to the videos that he put out, it did not slow him down from a busy schedule of faking paperwork while in the hospital.
