A tweet by Ivanka Trump @ivankatrump saying “I cannot believe that Theodore is eight months old today! Happy birthday little teddy bear!” with an admittedly cute picture of a child smiling. It has a reply from @blacknmild saying “this isn’t how birthdays work”

    Yeah and let’s note that he’s clearly been on HGH, gender affirming care, since he was a teen.

    You can literally ask any AI if being 6’7" at his age (or any of his heights/ages following the years where they started HGH) is normal, and it will voluntarily tell you while it can possibly be normal, in general no, it’s a sign of excess growth hormone and the person should be screened for acromegaly or Marfan’s. Per Trump, Barron has no diseases (yes, he’s been asked about this before because his son is so tall), he is just that tall.

    If Barron was as many standard deviations short as he is tall, he’d be 4’7".

    He was not only given HGH, but so much of it that it potentially risks his heart and could be part of why he has alleged mental/brain issues.

    Every fucking accusation is a confession with Trump - can’t give trans kids puberty blockers, that’s abuse, but you can accelerate their aging with excess HGH ig

      This seems… Is there any actual evidence for this, or is this just kinda a wishful conspiracy? Because I’m all for calling out their hypocrisy, but not only does this family have a history of lying about their height, tall people… exist. Approaching your full height at 19 isn’t exactly uncommon.

      (Ask an AI? Am I being wooshed?)

        The “evidence” here is pretty sketchy, but I believe it, for two reasons.

        1. It’s extremely on brand for a Trump to do this. Decrying [X] publicly while getting it for yourself is basically all he has ever done. Look to the covid vaccines for a convenient example. In addition, Trump thinks being tall = being important (just look at the six inch lifts he wears in his shoes) and I have no problem at all believing that he doped up his son with a bunch of drugs to try and turn him into some kind of superhuman.

        2. They’ve been making up stories about everyone else for their entire lives. So even if this one is completely made up, what does it matter? What goes around comes around. They’re lucky it’s something as relatively legal and safe as HGH. If we were really going tit for tat on Trump misinformation, we should have mainstream media telling everyone that Barron Trump was raised on an IV drip feed of stem cells, crack cocaine and blended up white babies. That would be closer to actually tasting some of their own medicine.

        Alas(?) lefties don’t really want to play that game. They generally find misinformation to be distasteful. Which I don’t blame anyone for. I’m just tired of one “team” being bound by rules and one “team” just doing whatever the fuck they want constantly with zero oversight. If we aren’t going to implement oversight then we’ll both end up in the mud together.
