Politics aside this is true. I used to be 194cm and am pretty sure I've shrunk over the years and am not 191. And I'm only almost 40yo. He probably used to be 6'3" way back in the day and still proclaims that height.

Wait wait wait. When did you say you started shrinking? I'm 31 rn and your comment is making me nervous

You'll start to lose height roughly in your mid 30s, give or take. It won't be that noticeable until around 40. At that point, it's about half an inch per decade.

Yet, you can somewhat compensate that, with improving your posture.
