and the face isn't as angular as Melania's. Do you suppose he's buried the real Melania in the Rose Garden and this is a body double?

and I don't think it's her although she was at the gig where idiot can't color the American flag right. Maybe she doesn't want him grabbing her hand anymore.

Posters have supposed a large conspiracy so that Melania doesn't have to travel with Trump in Air Force One while she does appear with him at multiple events in Ohio.

Supposedly she traveled with him in Marine One to the airport, a double got off and onto the plane with him.

Then in Ohio the double got off the plane with him and somewhere along the line they switch in the real Melania again.

After she had flown to Ohio by some other means.

Lots of moving parts for no real gain and lots of risk if discovered, so ... no point, no conspiracy. You can all stand down now.

The picture sure doesnt look like her, and to refer to a poster as a promoter of tinfoil hat (code for crazy) bc he posited a question seems a bit harsh and bordering on a personal attack in my opinion. What do you care if we talk about it anyway? Just asking.

There seems to be some tinfoil hat stuff on there.

Wasn't referring to the poster that way - was asking the poster not to bring tinfoil hat stuff (i.e. that "Mack" twitter feed) here.

I think it's ridiculous to talk about a "fake Melania" at Joint Base Andrews.

originate from? Saying someones promoting "tinfoil hat" posts in the age of don ivan seems to be shooting the messenger. Shreds usually reliable. And to say that don ivan is above tricks bc its at Andrews AFB isnt a complete defense to me.

I think your description of someones post of concern as being 'tinfoil hat' seems to me to be unecessary, and coded language for "crazy". Who cares Oberliner? Like I say, I see Shreds posts and most always they are perfectly fine. It's not the first time it's been posted here. As if everything don does is on the up and up....smdh.

The idea that there is a "fake Melania" is exactly what "tinfoil hat" is meant for.

This is not a disparagement of the poster of the OP who I am sure is a wonderful person and is perfectly sane.

We live in a world of shit bc this circus is a hairball of conspiracies. To discuss one regarding the flotus seems in keeping and not at all crazy. Tinfoil hat just seemed like it was offensive. We have to discuss the bizarre daily here. Just wish we'd go easy on each other and I spoke up. No harm. Buenos noches.
