There’s been some buzz about JD Vance’s height recently, with various online sources listing conflicting numbers and sparking debates. Let’s untangle the confusion:
The Height Controversy
Background: JD Vance, the Ohio Senator and 2024 vice-presidential pick for former President Donald Trump, has found himself at the center of a height mystery. After gaining fame with his memoir Hillbilly Elegy, which was adapted into a Netflix film, Vance has recently become a prominent figure in politics.
The Google Glitch: The controversy started when Google listed Vance’s height as 5’7″. This led to a flurry of online speculation and jokes. Lucas Tomlinson highlighted the discrepancy on X (formerly Twitter), and some users even speculated that the “JD Vance” we see publicly might be a stand-in or “double” due to the height mismatch.
The Comedy of Errors: One humorous post on X by @AwakenedOutlaw compared the heights of several politicians, including an exaggeratedly tall Barron Trump at 8’7″, to illustrate the absurdity of the height mix-up.
The Real Deal: Amidst the swirling rumors, JD Vance himself set the record straight. In a clarification to the Daily Mail, Vance confirmed that he is actually 6’3″. To further clear up any doubts, campaign official Jason Miller shared a photo of Vance standing next to Trump, who is also listed as 6’3″ by his White House physician.
So, despite the online buzz and mix-ups, JD Vance is indeed 6’3″. The Google glitch appears to be a simple error, and Vance’s true height is back in the spotlight as part of his public image.
