US voters convinced Donald Trump is using Melania doppelganger after spotting odd detail – Express
Whilst the ‘real’ spouse clearly has been by his side throughout his election campaign, footage of 78-year old Trump on Tuesday (November 5) went viral after an X user claimed that Melania has been “wearing sunglasses inside all day today”.
“That’s not Melania, this is insane,” penned one conerned voter as the video soared to almost 50 million views. “Doesn’t look like her,” another X user agreed. “Has he hired a double? That would just be the latest fake dimension of Trump’s life. Everything is for show, a performance.”
A third person pointed out supposed tell tale signs, responding: “She doesnt walk like Melania. But the real giveaway is her hands. Look at the hands. This is clearly different than how Melania uses her hands.” Whilst a fourth theorised: “The body double is much younger than her. The face is too young, thin and pale.”
Others suggested the woman in question was in fact one of Trump’s press team. “Looks like Trump press person, Margo Martin,” one person claimed, sharing a picture of her apparent evidence. “I think the campaign gets away with using her as a decoy a lot.”

Shutting down the lookalike rhetoric, however, Trump’s backers shared videos to the contrary, declaring it was indeed 54-year old Melania accompanying the president-elcect at the polling station in Palm Beach, Florida.
“I guess you missed this part,” slammed X user Eric Pistey, who shared a video in response of Trump standing by the side of Melania – minus her sunglasses. “Democrats would sell their own mother for a side of beef,” another person hit out in response to the conspiracy.
“Liars also big time. All to make a one person look bad that’s not bad at all and that’s Trump. My advice to Democrats is to stop watching propaganda that is on the news.”

Just Stop Oil supporters painted the US embassy building in London in orange paint, shortly after Trump claimed election victory, meanwhile. The environmental activist group says it is demanding that governments work together to “end the extraction and burning of oil, gas, and coal by 2030.”
A Just Stop Oil spokesperson said: The only real winner of today’s election is the corporate power that controls the major parties in both the US and UK. Regardless of who sits in the White House, corporations and billionaires will ensure that the interests of the fossil fuel industry will continue to be prioritised over the wellbeing of ordinary people.
“It is only through people coming together to disrupt ‘business as usual’ that humanity will stand any chance of minimising the effects of climate breakdown and the resulting social collapse that is already underway.”
