Donald Trump responds to those Melania Trump body double rumours

It has been widely speculated.

Since Donald Trump was sworn into office in 2016, there has been rumours going around the his wife Melania has a body double. On numerous occasions where the couple had to go out on official engagements, people speculated that the person standing next to (or behind) Donald Trump was not, indeed, his wife. However, after nearly three years, the President has responded to the rumours. Taking to Twitter (are you surprised?), Donald said: "The Fake News photoshopped pictures of Melania, then propelled conspiracy theories that it’s actually not her by my side in Alabama and other places. They are only getting more deranged with time!"

It kinda backfired on Donald though, as many people left a comment under the post saying the, in fact, do not believe him:

I'm not a #FakeMelania proponent, but no one photoshopped her. The fact that you're tweeting about it does make me consider that the stand in idea might actually be true. pic.twitter.com/k4ZTOzo2Co

You just need better stunt doubles when Melania is hanging with Justin Trudeau #BeBest.

I thought those stories were total BS until I saw this tweet from the Congenital Liar In Chief. Now I *know* there is a stable full of Trump Trophy Wife Doubles.
