Rapper addressed reports suggesting Trump’s doctors are concerned about his weight

Rapper Jelly Roll took aim at Donald Trump’s weight during his guest hosting appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Monday. The “Need A Favor” star has famously trimmed down in recent years, going from a peak weight of around 540–550 pounds down to the mid-200s.

It comes after The Washington Post reported this week that doctors have warned that weight gain is “a strong risk factor” for the president’s health after the commander-in-chief put on 23 pounds in three years. Trump, a known lover of McDonald’s and Diet Coke, has long faced concerns about his overall health, including bruising on his hands and swelling of his ankles.

Jelly Roll went on to suggest in his monologue that people “should take it easy” on the president about his weight, given that he “would never do that to other people.” The broadcast then cut to show various clips of Trump making disparaging remarks about people’s bodies over the years. The rapper responded: “Well, if that ain’t the pot calling the kettle fat.” “Mr. President,” he quipped, “From one fat pig to another, take it from me that physical fitness is very important.
