If you thought Donald Trump being elected as US President wasn’t unbelievable enough, here’s an even wilder piece of news.
This week, strange rumours surfaced on social media that First Lady Melania Trump is, in fact, using a body double. The proof? At a recent press conference broadcast on CNN, ‘Melania’ was seen hiding behind a pair of oversized dark shades and a buttoned-up trench coat. Or was that her stand in?
“This is not Melania. To think they would go this far & try & make us think its her on TV is mind blowing. Makes me wonder what else is a lie,” Joe Vargas observed on Twitter.
After some serious detective and photo comparisons, Vergas concluded: “It’s not her”.
