Why does obese Trump ignore his health problems when attacking other candidates?

70 year old, 75 lbs over weight. Loves fast food. Doesn't exercise.
Sets a bad example.
Odd, given how he talks about other people's bodies.
Trump:
“She came to my wedding. She ate like a pig”
“A person who’s flat chested is very hard to be a 10, OK?”
“That must be a pretty picture, you dropping to your knees,” he told a female contestant on “The Celebrity Apprentice.”
“They take care of their ***es,”
“I would never buy Ivana any decent jewels or pictures. Why give her negotiable assets?”
"26,000 unreported sexual assults in the military-only 238 convictions. What did these geniuses expect when they put men & women together?"
“You know, it doesn’t really matter what [the media] write as long as you’ve got a young and beautiful piece of a**.”
"While @BetteMidler is an extremely unattractive woman, I refuse to say that because I always insist on being politically correct."
“My favorite part [of ‘Pulp Fiction’] is when Sam has his gun out in the diner and he tells the guy to tell his girlfriend to shut up. Tell that bitch to be cool. Say: ‘B**** be cool.’ I love those lines.”
Megyn Kelly called him out on his sexist behavior during the GOP debate on August 6, reminding him: “You have called women you don’t like ‘fat pigs’, ‘dogs’, ‘slobs’, and ‘disgusting animals.”
Trump called Kelly a “bimbo”
"there was blood coming out of her eyes — blood coming out of her wherever.”
Trump: “nobody respects women more than Donald Trump.”
Google any of the above phrases.

Trump is an MCP with a body to match. Terrible human being.

I saw CNN cut away from actual news to cover Trump by saying something like: a presidential candidate is about to stage a event in a hotel ballroom to essentially declare the sky is blue, water is wet and the sun rises in the east
Trump then came in and lied several times (yesterday was apparently a day he and his campaign lied 13 times, according to multiple sources.)
Trump lied about his birtherism of the last 5 years, he lied that Hillary started it (a lie debunked by every news service, even Megyn Kelly on Fox yesterday,) and Trump lied when he claimed he ended it. He hasn't.
related: Dems were going to send flowers to Trump for keeping his lies front and center, but seeing his obesity, sent a kale salad.
Seen Trump without a suitjacket on lately? Me neither. Despite his hand size, one notices the belly, doesn't one?

Trump promised in 2012 $5 million in charitable giving in exchange for documents that would prove to Trump's satisfaction that Obama was not born abroad.
Pay up buster.
5 mill of your personal money, cheapskate.
We all know Trump won't release his taxes because he skimps on charitable giving. Selfish. Greedy. Monstrously self inflated ego.
Pay up.

Trump's health is excellent. He is 6'-3" and weighs 236 pounds. He is overweight but not even close to being obese. His cholesterol is 169, His HDL cholesterol is 63; his LDL cholesterol is 94. HDL above 50 and LDL below 100 are excellent. His blood sugar is 99. Amazing considering all the junk food he eats. His C Reactive protein (indicative of a heart condition) is 0.7. He does not drink or smoke. His parents lived into their eighties and nineties.
Hillary's, on the other hand, is even more overweight than Donald Trump adjusted for height. Her thighs are very large as is her waist. She can barely walk and would fail a field sobriety test for walking a straight line even if she did not have an ounce of alcohol to drink. [Portion removed]
Given her deteriorating health, being elected President would be a extremely debilitating as she would most likely not be able to function on a normal level for even 4 years. The odds are that if she were elected president her cabinet would have to invoke the 25th amendment during her first term with Tim Kaine ascending to the Presidency.

I have to hand it to you, poster from Central Menlo Park -- your copy-and-paste skills are excellent.
Your grasp on truth and logic, on the other hand -- definitely lacking.
Hard to say which is worse: Trump's constant lies -- or the fact that there are people who actually accept Trump's lies as the truth.

"He is 6'-3" and weighs 236 pounds...but not even close to being obese"
Lies like Trump - winner winner! Once you start with a lie, we know you jus keep lying.
From the Washington Examiner, a conservative paper: Web Link
That is not anywhere near 236, closer to 300.
"He is 6'2" and weighs 263." BMI is over 33 = OBESE
Body mass index (BMI)- A measure of body fat in adults
Weight 263 lb
Height 6ft 2in
33.8
Obese BMI
Source: US National Institute of Health
DailyMail:
Weighing 267 pounds would mean he has a BMI of 33, which is 'obese'
The Republican candidate claims he is 6'3", but is listed online as 6'2"
Trump also reportedly said he 'kisses his daughter every chance he gets'
Said he feels the same age as 39-year-old Patriots QB Tom Brady
Why would anyone believe Trump? Ever.
You are being taken for a ride. Make sure to give him your email address - he has some things he wants to sell you.
And they're made in China.

230 lbs? Not a chance. Look at that picture. There's a reason his campaign restricts network cameras to strictly a head on shot. The vanity is astounding.

My uncle in Arizona called me to say it's obvious that Hillary has Stage 3 Parkinsons, 'but then I'm not a neurologist.'
Who is listening to any of this? It all seems so obvious as to how totally ludicrous Donald Trump is, and how laughable the possibility of him being president is, but we live in a bubble out here in rich and cosy CA. Talk to people in the rest of the country and then hold your breath for November 8. Reach out to friends and relatives in the rest of the country and try to talk some sense to them, without being seen as the smarmy entitled California liberal they think you are.....

Both candidates are in good enough health to be President.
FDR was in a wheelchair with polio and died in office and FDR
was one of our country's greatest Presidents - the greatest in
my opinion in the 20th century.
I don't think Donald Trump has the mental health nor the character
to be President ... nor the moral values ... not the intelligence.
Donald Trump is a big problem, but the larger problems still is
the people who would actually vote for him.
If the country could survive Bill Clinton, and we did rather nicely
at the time, we can surely survive Hillary - no doubt about it.
I do not think normalizing the campaign that Trump has run or
validating the coverage the media has given him ... and still
gives him daily is acceptable or will lead to anything but
destruction for our society.
It is not even that I agree or disagree with one or the other more
or less. I am a Democrat, but Trump has some good ideas ...
the problems are all listed above, and do not even touch on
or every good idea he talks about with the same hour he
says something to undercut it and sound like an Alzheimer's
sufferers.
I don't think Americans are so foolish or dangerous, so my opinion
is that if Trump gets election it is massive fraud and deception from
any and every sector of our economy and the country is over already,
he doesn't have to ruin it.
Hillary we can survive, and in fact since Bush I was a one-term
President it may be fitting that Hillary hits that same mark ... let's
end this Bush/Clinton alternation.
Finally, we need to do something about our disgusting broken ...
non-existent press/journalism/media. Our system of diseminating
what is going on in our country has turned into about the same
effect as having a bumble-bee consantly buzzing around our
heads and in our ears ... all we get is nonsense and distraction.
That simply cannot stand if we expect to have a country.

Trump pads his own pockets with campaign contributions to the tune of over half a million a month. Over $8 million in charges from his companies to his campaign which pays in an un-Trumpian manner, that is, they pay Trump companies on time, directly, without discounts and without getting lawyers involved.

Typical monthly fleecing includes a couple rooms in his tower, no windows and unfinished walls for $170,000 in rent (just for the month of August.)

Same reason Hillary said "you can't erase history."
It's called irony.

Wha???? Hillary’s campaign runs campaign money through her companies?
Besides being incorrecthe - what irony?

Betcha he's scarfing on the junk food this weekend. The elevated stress levels are emotionally dangerous for an overweight 70 year.

Get it? He's turning America BLUE!
