How tall is Ted Cruz? A hot topic to discuss among American fans in the USA, and from other countries.

How Tall Is Ted Cruz?

Ted Cruze is 5’8″ tall, i.e. 177.8 cm and 1.77 Meters; most probably he is tall closer to 5’10”. According to an unofficial survey, 44% of people say he is 5ft 9.84 in or 177.4cm

First I would like to mention what the Washington Post mentioned in 2015 – “Ted Cruz, who had been pegged at 5’8″ but various reports, including from Post reporters, put at closer to 5’10”

What Did Fans think About His Height?

Ted fans have their own guesses about his height; some compare his height with Donald Trump’s height, and some with other co-politicians and even female fans compared with their own husband’s height.

While writing this article I have seen some interesting guesses about his height, a few I mention below.

1. He Looks 1.5 inches shorter than Donald Trump jr. who is probably 5’11.5 and weak 6’0. Even considering cowboy boots he doesn’t look more than 5’10.5I’ve met Senator Cruz and he is certainly not 5’8. I’m about 6’1 and he wasn’t much shorter than I am so I would say somewhere in the 5’10-5’11 vicinity.
2. I met Ted once while standing and recently while seated. He’s listed as 5′ 8″, but I got the impression that he was closer to 5′ 9″, based on my own height. He’s listed at 175 lbs, and that seems right, he looks fairly trim.
3. Most of the time he is wearing casual clothes. My husband is around 6′ tall and Cruz was just as tall while wearing flip-flops.
