News Outlets Forced to Clarify Melania Trump Has No Body Double After Ridiculous Internet Hoax

News Outlets Forced to Clarify Melania Trump Has No Body Double After Ridiculous Internet Hoax

Oh, internet

2017, a most ridiculous time to be alive. Wednesday, internet sleuths thought they were really on to something — the “Melania Trump” standing next to the president was not in fact Melania, they claimed.

Dressed in a trench coat and sporting a fab pair of sunglasses, someone whose TV has jacked up aspect ratio decided the difference in appearance was substantial enough to suggest the first lady had a body double.

Behold:

Apparently, the only thing needed to completely alter your appearance is a spiffy pair of shades.

Thanks for clearing that up. False alarm, everyone! False alarm!

CNN clarifies:

So widespread was this nonsense that CNN and other outlets were forced to correct the internet record:

No, Melania Trump doesn’t have a body double — despite what you may have seen on the internet.

The bizarre rumor grew out of a Twitter post from a California man, who, according to his bio, sells hemp syrup. The tweet implied the first lady standing beside President Donald Trump last week wasn’t actually the first lady, but an imposter. He compared an older image of the first lady to a tight shot of her — as though this provided evidence that there are two different Trumps.

The East Wing dismissed the obvious falsehood, chastising those pursuing it.

“Once again, we find ourselves consumed with a ridiculous non-story when we could be talking about the work the first lady is doing on behalf of children, including the opioid crisis that is gripping our nation,” East Wing communications director Stephanie Grisham told CNN.

Hemp syrup. I suppose that explains it.

Who is that behind those Foster Grants?

Insanity runs wild ! A person has to be totally IRRATIONAL to dream this crap up. You can not tell me all of this stuff, everyday, is NORMAL thinking !

In my nearly 70 years of life I have never witnessed so much silliness coming out of society. Calorie counters that equate minutes of a certain exercise with consumption of a particular quantity of a food item have been as ubiquitous as cockroaches in big city apartments.

Google maps had such s feature showing calories burned walking a designated route with calories in an equivalent number of mini cupcakes.

Google removed the feature because it could. might remotely be possible, to trigger a person with an eating disorder who might not be able to eat just one mini cupcake.

There was conjecture that Hillary had a body double during the campaign… but hard to find one that fit Mary Shelley’s description.

Notice the usual suspects didn’t point-out fashion icon michelle obama having a body-double.

They couldn’t. Because she has a double-body.

And she is now banned on interstate highways.

And unfortunately for her (and fortunately for us), she no longer has Air Force Ton to fly around on.

Though she is available to pull plows on a local basis.

Its like , if it is, so what ,

Really? What are the odds that someone who could pass as a body double for Melania Trump would first come to public notice acting as a body double for Melania Trump, as opposed to either living in obscurity or having a modeling career?

if there was another woman on the planet that hawt, she’d be with Trump too… it’s like Pokeman! 😎
