4:17Now PlayingA rumor is circulating the internet that Melania Trump has a body double. Hannah Cranston, Brett Erlich, Amberia Allen, the hosts of The Young Turks, discuss if that’s really Melania in that video. Tell us what you think in the comment section below. Join TYT
"The news has been pretty dark and heavy lately, and when that happens, people look to insane conspiracy theories to lighten the mood. Sure enough, on Tuesday, Oct. 17, internet people decided that First Lady Melania Trump uses a body double. Twitter, naturally, has taken this theory and run with it, shouting memes and ridiculous ideas into the maelstrom that surrounds the Trumps.
It all began with a public appearance made by President Donald and ~allegedly~ Melania Trump on Friday, Oct. 13, according to Newsweek. The president made an appearance outdoors to discuss Puerto Rico hurricane relief and the Iran nuclear deal. The MAYBE real Melania stands next to Donald silently. She wears a beige trench coat and large, black sunglasses. Her highlighted hair falls in front of her face, as if she has something to hide! One eagle-eyed Facebook user going by the name "Andrea Wagner Barton" made a public post on Friday night asking,
Will the real Melania please stand up?
Is it me or during his speech today a decoy "stood in" for Melania??
The Facebook user also points to the fact that the president specifically felt the need to mention "my wife Melania, who happens to be right here." PRETTY SUS, SIS."
