    As the deadline for Donald Trump to surrender for booking in Georgia looms, online sportsbooks are going wild with proposition bets on everything from his tie color to his body weight at booking.
    One bookmaker site, Antigua-based BetOnline, on Friday offered an over/under of 273.5 pounds for Trump's weight upon his surrender to authorities in Fulton County, noted gambling news Instagram account TheJuice.
    Over/unders, which are also often used to bet on the point total of a sporting event, allow the gambler to select whether they believe the outcome will be higher or lower than amount selected by oddsmakers.

    This is awesome!
    Remember when Trump made the ludicrous LYING claim that he weighed 239 lbs, when everybody KNEW that he was pushing 3 Bills?
    How do you see it?
    Over or Under the 273.5?

    I honestly didn't know we weighed our potential criminals during processing, or if/how that information is released, but the safe bet is over. He looks a little better than his insurrection fighting weight days, but he's still not gonna break 273.5...

    Well, he's got almost a full week to exercise... more than his mouth or social media...

    Good luck, Donny...

    285 is my guess, though he will whine the scales are fake news

    I find this post offensive.

    Only because it hits too close to home!

    This is hilatious...
    Meanwhile, for gamblers looking to cash on Trump's weight, it's worth noting that the current over/under on BetOnline is set far above any weight that has been recently reported for the former president.
    When he was booked in Manhattan on New York state charges earlier this year, 76-year-old Trump reportedly told officials he stood six-foot-two and weighed 240 pounds -- though those measurements were self-reported and not verified.

    If I were Trump, I would stay in Florida and fight any extradition.

    There is no reason for Trump to have to put up with all of these absurdities.

    In my opinion it's a mistake for Trump to trust the local state legal systems. But the fact that he is submitting to these humiliations should at least reveal something about his character.

    Well, the Las Vegas oddmakers will bet on anything and everything lol. But I don't his mug shot will be made public anytime soon if that is done. The governor can request that he be booked, but no photo taken or his weight.

    I don’t know who looks worse, the fat guy or those swinging from every flab and ripple.

    That’s some heavy duty polish there, friend.
    I suspect that Capone didn’t trust local state legal systems either, but nobody gives a **** what the criminal says.

    I would definitely bet under, not only do I believe this to be true, but I think the majority are going to bet over

    So now the highly educated and intellectual elite are obsessed with Trump's weight? I guess all of our problems were solved by Biden.

    Such as? That he doesn't want to be an official fugitive from justice and be physically arrested?

    He's like my hero now!!

    You mean the guy who insults everyone else’s appearance and obviously lies about his own height and weight?
    We’re just amused by a narcissist having his shortcomings aired publicly

    Hummm! So he gets extradited and held without bail; great advice.

    There IS one reason. The LAW, you know the public institution TRAITOR tRump constantly denigrates and his MAGrates adamantly claim to support.

    What these humiliations reveal about his character is he’s a serial criminal.

    (My bet … OOOOVER!)

    I wonder if they’ll measure him in his stocking feet or let him wear his lifts?

    If this weight thing is serious, what would prevent Trump, through proxies, betting the farm on the results he already likely knows (assuming he can read the numbers before they go away)??

    Nothing!
    The books probably have a max bet limit...
    But, yes...there could be an Army of Trump Proxies making Max Limit Bets...
    Great point, EB...

    Well hell, I hate Trump as much as anybody, but if somebody is going to be betting on MY weight, I'm going to cash in too...

    Wouldn't blame him for this one...

    Making a bet himself? Sure.

    Enlisting a throng of MAGrates to place bets for him … should be illegal, if it isn’t already.
