Former US President Donald Trump is making waves again with his controversial tongue. This time dragging Ravens‘ star QB Lamar Jackson and NFL legend Tom Brady in the ongoing controversy. The roots of this trouble lie in what many consider to be a ‘lie’ from the former president. Unfortunately, this falsehood gained traction through a media outlet, prompting others to join in and stoke the flames.

This isn’t the first instance of Brady and Jackson’s names being linked to Trump. Jackson even extended gratitude to the 77-year-old in a past tweet. As for Brady, he had multiple friendly connections with Trump early in his career, including rounds of golf and serving as a judge at the Miss USA pageant in 2002. But this friendship turned sour for them too. However, this time around, Trump’s revelation hasn’t managed to impress many.

How did the Trump-Jackson-Brady controversy start?

Former President Donald Trump was arrested and booked at the Fulton County Jail in Atlanta on Thursday night. The 77-year-old was accused of racketeering, conspiracy, and soliciting a public official to breach their oath of office, among others. His mug shot was quickly shared on social media and garnered widespread attention. Notably, discussions also revolved around Trump’s listed measurements: 6-foot-3 and 215 pounds.

The viral news prompted comparisons between Trump’s measurements and those of prominent athletes. MSNBC drew parallels with Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, NFL legend Tom Brady, Phillies star Bryce Harper, and boxing icon Muhammad Ali. Jackson stands at 6’2″ and 215 lbs, Brady at 6’4″ and 225 lbs, Harper at 6’3″ and 210 lbs, and Ali at 6’3″ and 214 lbs. CBS Morning also joined the conversation, comparing Trump’s measurements to Derek Carr and Larry Fitzgerald, in addition to Jackson.

While some media outlets, like Fox News, labeled it as a “mockery of the justice system,” numerous NFL fans joined the discussion, sharing their thoughts on this viral controversy.

Fans blame Trump more than MSNBC?

While sports fans are playfully engaging with Trump’s measurements, there’s a significant contingent that strongly disapproves of his controversial statements. One online user expressed differing opinions from Fox News’ labeling, stating, “It’s trump that’s making a mockery of everything he touches.”

Adding to this sentiment, another user noted, “Not a mockery of the justice system, a mockery of Crooked Trump, who is incapable of being honest about his height and weight.”

A succinct comment read, “It’s a mockery of Trump for Godsake.”

In agreement, another person remarked, “Trump mocked the system.”

Among these reactions, some offered playful remarks. One user quipped, “If they asked to list his age, he probably would have listed 24.”

Taking a lighthearted tone, someone else playfully commented, “If Trump is 215 lbs then I look like Brad Pitt.”

Amidst the humor and criticism, the controversy surrounding Trump’s measurements continues to elicit a variety of reactions from fans and critics alike. Nevertheless, one thing is clear: these remarks by Trump have failed to impress many.
