5. Love of Sports
During his years of schooling at the New York Military Academy, Trump participated in numerous sports. He was, in actuality, a sturdy 6 foot, 2 inches tall. According to reports, he played football, tennis, squash, and took up golf. Photographs from the school also show him on the varsity baseball team (pictured). While most of these sports would fade away into watching hobbies for Trump, it was golf that would become a staple of his life decades later.
