      Arnold wants everyone to be healthy regardless of their physical location.

      It’s hilarious because he harps on everyone else’s appearance, while looking like microwaved orange sherbet.

        True, but like at least half of Americans are obese. It makes a lot of people sensitive to fat jokes.

            I googled. 42.4% of adults according to the most recent figures. That’s closer to half than a third.

            2014 it was closer to a third. 2017-2020 it was 42.4%. Given the tred, I wouldn’t be surprised that it’ll be close to or more than half now.

              The post-pandemic numbers are bound to be very different. I’m working on a study for medical school right now and it was ever so much fun to have to throw out more than half of my work because the results from pre-pandemic studies are so wildly different from studies after 2020. The pandemic is going to have public health effects that will last generations.

      I don’t think it’s so much his weight, it is all the lying about it.

        So the alleged lieing at the first arrest about the weight he claimed its actually true? Never checked myself after hearing it the first time.

        Finding clames of both 240 and 322 (lbs)

      Arnold is an expert on fitness. He’s taking a verbal stab at Trump because Trump clearly doesn’t want to be honest about his own weight. So Arnold is offering his expert advice to Trump about how to actually drop weight instead of lying about your weight like Trump did when he was arrested and processed.

      It’s just a lot like Kim Jong Un or Putin, where he seriously pictures himself looking like Vin diesel. And so do his followers. All those maga flags and political comics actually give him a six pack and make him 6’5. It’s gross and kind of scary.

      dude doesn’t care about himself, he doesn’t care about his own children or wives, he doesn’t care about you, he doesn’t care about humanity. it’s all connected.
