This is the official picture of all heads of state during the NATO conference that is currently held in The Netherlands. But i noticed something.... and to be fair it was not really a suprise.
In this cutout Trump is standing next to Royal Highness Willem-Alexander Claus George Ferdinand, koning der Nederlanden, Prins van Oranje-Nassau, jonkheer van Amsberg. (or how we call him with the pet names: Wim-Lex, Willem, Alex, Royal Orange, etc.)
After some googling we see the height of Trump is 6 feet 3 inches or 190 centimeters in normal terms (ref:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heights_of_presidents_and_presidential_candidates_of_the_United_States)
But the King is 6 feet or 183centimeters in normal terms.
(Just onereference, there are many https://blauwbloed.eo.nl/royaltynieuws/lengte-oranjes)
So i guess the lens of the camera has a flaw.... i guess...
Another picture where Trump stands together with Marc Rutte (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Rutte)
According to the internet he has a relatively normal Dutch height of 6 feet and 4 inches or 193centimeters in normal terms. (https://www.businessinsider.nl/rutte-langste-wereldleiders-biden-sunak-xi-jinping-macron-trudeau/)
Again it looks like a serieus flaw in the lens as the difference seems more than 1 inch
this is a different event, standing together on the same floor.....
My guess all leaders (except Trump) have documented a way lower hight than reality. and again you cannot trust all world leaders (except Trump).

He wore a bright blue suit to stand out

I hate that men are stuck wearing boring suits in formal settings while women can wear whatever they want. I don't want to wear a jacket and tie. There should be other options, not to mention colors. Why do we look like just more slaves to the Victorian sense of fashion?

I just want to point out that he has horrible tasting suits.

Have you tried them?
swedeonamoose
lol way in the back 3rd from the left, our poor pm isnt just kinda short, he always end up in the back as well and dosnt look too happy about it.
Bigcurly2000
It's hilarious because he IS still quite tall, but because he's so ridiculously insecure and a pathological liar he just can't help 1/2
Bigcurly2000
exaggerating! And the crazy thing is, NO ONE FUCKING CARED how tall he was until he started talking such blatant bullshit.
glovelyday
Love how the Orange douce had to sgesk his toe on to the red carpet. #1
What a childish ego.
DidItForScience
Notice he's almost shoulder to shoulder with the king too. He so badly wants to be in the center of that photo.

Obviously, all of these freakishly tall foreign dignitaries are under-reporting their heights, in order to make the orange emperor look foolish...
Metaphone
None of them want to play center in the NBA, so they claim to be less than 7’
Iaimtomisbehave
Well, he does!
bamcobra
It’s working.
FelixGeralt
It looks like his suit is trying to swallow him
buttcreambandit
Men who have to lie about their height are insecure small pathetic little people. Likely with small penises too. I’m fuckin 5’7” and I don’t give a fuck
guitarfourtysix
He looks like his girdle is killing him.
Kazpur81S
The poofy pants hide his leg braces and pee bag.

Imagine becoming the ruler of your country, you strive to make things better for your people and then you're asked to go shake hands pose and probably share a meal with a rapist, pedophile, conman who perpetually smells like a full diaper...
Sh1tMovieGroup
Maybe he's lost a few inches lately, would explain why his trousers don't fit and looks like he bought them off the shelf like some poor person who can't afford a tailored suit...
SomeUser2
When did you lose a couple of inches and had your trousers look like this. According to the records he is in shape and barely able to lose weight with the reported height.
CelestialSea
Notice he no longer has the dementia 'lean' and there are strange rumples at the bottom of his pants? It's pretty clear he's wearing braces and he probably had to lose the lifts he used to use for special occasions. Even with the lifts he never made 6'3" but they got him closer.
Blakeadelic
Looks like his poorly tailored slacks were cut for someone 6’3” too.
OookOookOookMotherFudger
Don't forget... Mango Mussolini wears platform shoes to make himself appear taller... And he still has to stand at the front with all the little people.
SomeUser2
True, except for the king and queen, the protocol demands they always take center stage. And a lot more. Lime: he toast by lifting his glass, not touching the other as normal. You don't speak to hem unless he speaks to you first. You don't reach out with your hand to greet him unless he reaches out. And a lot more, he is the country in the literal way. That's why he does not have a passport. Unless he is "non formal" then we (the Dutch) all shout for attention and try to give him a hand

Jeez! What are Trump's pants all about? What's he hiding in there?

Mark Rutte is around 184 cms. I have met him in real life and he is the same height as myself.

I know this isn't the point, but pictures like this always make me reflect on the lameness of men's formal wear. There are so few options.
It especially sucks in summer, where a business suit is possibly the least comfortable thing that could be worn in the heat.
somerandomusernamebecauseididntlikemyoldone
In reality there are a lot of options (colors, patters, materials, cuts, etc.) even within that mold of just a standard suit but people in positions of power generally wear very similar things because of what some say people read into those colors/cuts/etc. Then people look to emulate those people. Regarding heat, linen suits are great in hot weather and there are some other modern fabrics that are very breathable too.
Dannyalcatraz
There’s more exciting men’s formal wear. It’s just that the combination of this PARTICULAR event featuring these leaders from THEIR RESPECTIVE COUNTRIES has rules that homogenize their look. Look outside of the USA and Western Europe, and you’ll see more variety.
TBH, most of those countries also have more formal CULTURAL attire that would be just as appropriate, but they won’t wear it.

You can any colour you want as long as it's black.

But to be honest, nothing beats a well tailored suit, that's worth the suffering. Shit stain is wearing some suit made by blind Mexicans on the verge of illegal deportation while Ice is knocking at the door, and it shows

Other than that imagine how much better these pictures would be if everyone elected women.
iamthemanwithnoname
Depends which women they elect. Meloni looks like the HR manager at a supermarket.

How to make a post political 101....
But yes, I don't mind anything like race color etc. As long as they represent my personal beliefs and principles they have my vote. That is the way a democratic nation works.

Dude I just like dresses more than suits.

True that

it's a photo of politicians brah

…also how was this not already political

Also how is "women" a political word?
SomeUser2
Because the post is about the length of the trump and the doubt, would that change if it where all women? The comment is totally outside of the context of the post.
ilBiggo
Yes, the comment started with "Other than that".

damn, i just wish Wim-Lex would have worn his full royal regalia! All the opulence and next to it trump in all his envy!

That indeed would be cool.

It is royal and therefore not over the top, you are confused with nk generals

Btw he does have a globe and an crown, but they are only used when the next in line is crowned.

I just want to point out that he has horrible taste in suits.

But there’s a guy in a tan suit. Who the hell invited Obama.

Basically in everything.
philmoregraves
It's not just the taste that's bad, he like doesn't have them tailored worth a shit, and he doesn't even know how to set the tie length half the time. It dangles down to where his dick should be, which is even worse when you consider how round he is

Baggy trousers to hide the diaper

Gotta hand it to whoever made the jacket though, it does an amazing job of hiding Trump's rotund girth when viewed from the front.

Man, Zelensky looks like such a boss, serious power look. And Macron pulled off the perfectly timed suit flick, very French of him. Whereas Trump seems to be wearing parachute pants for some reason and Erdogan has clearly just shat his pants.

Macron is sucking Arnault's (LVMH Boss) D# real hard since he became France's President.
His governement is 100% pro ultra rich, did cut the "ISF" tax to please them, etc...
Also did plenty of CUTS in public services funds. 😠
He is an A-Hole to plenty of French citizens and is only in place because we had to choose btw him and fascists in 2017 and 2022 second terms.

do not be fooled by Macron, he is a major piece of shit.
iamthemanwithnoname
Yes... He's french. /s

the parachute pants are to hide the knee braces?

There are photos of him with what looks like a tube-like bulge in his pants, and I'm 100% sure it's not his junk.
