Biden is 6' tall. Trump claims to be 6'3" but we all know he isn't; I'd be surprised if he's even 6'. Maybe Biden should turn the tables and do a little looming of his own.

People do shrink with age. He now wears 2-3" heels to make him look taller. He and Biden will be about the same height when standing side by side, but Trump will have 100 plus pounds on Biden.

Every time Trump says anything about Biden's mental or physical health, Joe should challenge him to a televised game of Jeopardy, and 10 push-ups, 10 sit-ups and a 100 yard run. Ridiculous I know, but wouldn't you love seeing Trump have to turn this down repeatedly?

maybe because of the lifts in his shoes. Biden has good posture, so he will look taller. In any event, Trump won't try to follow him around like he did Hillary, because his purpose in doing that was to try to intimidate her - not because she was shorter but because she was a woman.
