The new measurements listed by Trump's team for his arrest sheet match those of athletes in their prime such as Muhammad Ali.
Rudy Giuliani, the former New York mayor and Trump lawyer accused of involvement in illegal election fraud conspiracies, was initially listed as 180lbs and 5’9 after his surrender on Wednesday.
Later that day, the numbers were quietly changed to 230lbs and 5’11 – rather less flattering, depending on your priorities.An error could have been introduced further down the chain of information, although it’s not clear where.One of Mr Giuliani’s team anonymously told the Washington Post they did not recall anyone asking the politician for his height or weight, or asking him to step on a scale.
The booking also produced the first mugshot of a former or sitting US president, marking a watershed moment in US history – and, naturally, prompting a deluge of memes. The case, which he describes as a ‘travesty of justice’, involves charges of plotting to overturn Georgia’s 2020 election results. Trump was previously arrested in April over payments to pornstar Stormy Dainels, in June over federal charges related to his handling of classified documents after leaving office, and earlier this month on other federal charges related to efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election. He denies all the counts against him.
