Is this a case of a bogus FLOTUS?

First lady Melania Trump has been caught up in a nutty internet frenzy that makes the intrigue over the Russian conspiracy theories seem tame by comparison.

Bizarre speculation about a Melania body double has taken off faster than you can say “fake news” thanks to a tweet by @JoeVargas.

“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,” wrote Vargas of BuyLegalMeds.com.

He posted a video of the alleged impostor — wearing sunglasses and an Inspector Gadget-like trench coat — standing near President Trump at the White House before they visited a Secret Service facility.

The president oddly referred to his “wife Melania, who happens to be standing right here.”

Newsweek noted that Google searches like “Melania Trump dou

If this is a body double can I spend some time with the original?

I mean, she has a double so no one will notice, right?

If or not there is a double...can’t say I wouldn’t blame the President one iotta if there was. But frankly it’s just another conspiracy story.

Well, if you don’t believe this, try taking some Legal Meds, and then read it again!

That would be awesome. Just to tweak the media, she should fake stuff to mess with them.

Melania is really a Russian double agent.

Just how fake news CNN would present it.

If they ever get around to lifelike sex bots I want the Melania 2017 model.
Soooo much nicer than the Cherry 2000 model.

The people who accuse Trump of mental stability issues are far loopier than him.

Now who is being demented? Takes one to know one.

The double might not be married to a man who would have the means and reason to destroy you. She might be the better bet.

“we should use this, it’s a powerful tool.”

Kind of like his “it really is my hair” thing during the primary.
Have a Melania “double” pull off a Melania mask to reveal....Melania!

The left is already insane, just drive them outhouse rat crazy.

I would say that the Left already looks extremely crazy and stupid and nothing is really needed to continue that appearance.

To say they’re becoming unhinged presupposes they were hinged in the first place. Every day Trump puts a burning bag of $#!+ on their porch. And the media, Democrats, and RINO’s still can’t resist the urge to stomp out the fire.
