“Trump was totally amused by the beauty of Taj Mahal,” Nitin Kumar Singh, the guide who accompanied the presidential couple on their tour of the monument, told IANS.

However, he didn't go to see the original graves of [Mughal ruler] Shahjahan and [his wife] Mumtaz as his security personnel felt that he might get hurt as the way to the original graves is narrow and low in height.

Standing at 6 feet 3 inches and weighing in at nearly 250 pounds, according to the results of a physical examination released by the White House last year, seeing the original graves very well may have been a tight squeeze for the commander in chief.

The president’s stature has become a point of public discussion previously, with some critics casting doubt on Trump’s height after he was measured at 6’3’’ by his physician last year, making him – to the horror of the #Resistance – taller than former President Barack Obama.
