The Fake Melania Trump – aka Fauxlania – made another appearance this week

President Donald J. Trump  and First lady Melania Trump return to the White House

Throughout the Trump “presidency,” many of us have been convinced that Melania Trump has a body double who sometimes makes appearances with Donald Trump at the White House, the campaign trail and various events. While we had some inkling in 2017, the Decoy Melania aka Fake Melania aka Fauxlania mania really went next-level in 2019. That was when Fauxlania stepped out with Donald Trump and it was clear that she was shorter than Original Melania and she just had enough facial differences to be noticeable. People also pointed out that Original Mel has a Secret Service bodyguard who looks suspiciously like Mel. Is the Secret Service officer the Fauxlania? It would make sense from a security standpoint.

Anyway, all of this to say that Original Melania has only been seen once since she tested positive for the coronavirus more than three weeks ago – OG Mel pushed her husband’s hand away at Thursday night’s debate. That may be OG Mel’s final appearance on the campaign trail, because Mel likely still feels like sh-t because of the virus. So Fauxlania was called in:

Yeah, again… different mouth, different teeth, different height, different nose, different smile. It’s absolutely bonkers to me that in the year of our lord Beyonce 2020, the Trump administration really thinks that they can use a Melania stand-in and NO ONE WILL NOTICE.

    I dont get the reasoning for the double? She is hardly a popular Flotus,why all the tomfoolery. I can understand some really important appearance that she couldnt make,but when the double is there the Potus is present so who cares?

    • Who ARE These People? says:

      They don’t want people to think about how COVID can last in non-old adults.

      Or how his wife hates his guts.

      • Wiglet Watcher says:

        Or how not even Melania supports another 4 years.

        She said in a pre marriage interview she didn’t care about a career or working again. And she never stepped on those words since.

    • My3cents says:

      Her contract probably states the number of appearances she has to make.
      Also when you see a genuine smile you know that not the OG resting bitch soul.

    • Betsy says:

      I think they like rubbing our noses in it, honestly.

    • Va Va Kaboom says:

      With Trump’s notorious vanity and obsession with appearing strong, I wonder if this is the compromise during events that require a Secret Service Officer to be close enough to him to be in most photos.

      She definitely appears to be Melania’s SSO, so I’m thinking there’s got to be some kind of security necessity involved. Even if it’s just a smokescreen for the days he needs to feel and/or look particularly “strong” and thinks visible bodyguards would ruin that.

    • Bread and Circuses says:

      Possible reasons:
      a) She might still be sick. COVID19 is a lengthy beast for some people.
      b) She flicked his hand off again at the last debate. Could be there’s a chill between them since he infected both her and their kid. I do not think Melania is a good person, but I do believe she loves her son a lot more than she loves her husband.

  2. Rae says:

    Lol. Just lol.

    That is all the input I can muster for this fool!

  3. Chocolatt says:

    Its so noticeable

  4. Digital Unicorn says:

    I hope this lady is getting hazard pay for having to be near and touch him, she needs a medal in my opinion. Unlike the real FLOTUS she is doing her job.

    • Wiglet Watcher says:

      Nah. Some secret service members resigned after Obama. They made the choice to protect this POS POTUS. May they all get what they deserve.

      • Betsy says:

        That’s 100% not fair, and I don’t defend Trump adjacent fools. That’s their job, and it’s non political (or is supposed to be).

      • Still_Sarah says:

        @ Betsy : Agreed. 1. It’s their job and they don’t have to like who they protect. 2. Not many are in a position to walk away from a good government job with benefits, not when you have other people (family) depending on your pay check. I wish we could all vote with our feet and walk away from a situation like this but I don’t think that’s true.

      • Wiglet Watcher says:

        It’s a great job! No argument at all there. And you can parlay that easily into other great jobs within the federal government. People I know closely have been or are deep in federal government jobs and this is not uncommon with administrative differences.
        I stand firm by my comment.

        From what I’ve heard second hand the secret service are not mercenaries. They believe in the POTUS and there is a strong party line there. Very, very few approach it as a pay check.

  5. MattyLove says:

    My favorite comment I’ve seen on Twitter is something like: Donald Trump didn’t plant the fake Melania. Melania planted the fake Melania. Donald Trump doesn’t even know!

  6. Chimes@Midnight says:

    I don’t think even Trump’s followers really care much about Melania at this point, so why even bother? It’s odd. If she wasn’t there, shrug, probably not many people would notice.

  7. Lucy2 says:

    Yeah, that is definitely not her! There were just a bunch of articles about how weird it is that she has not been on the campaign trail at all, so now they’re trotting out the look-alike again.
    My guess is she’s just flat out refusing to do any other events with him, especially after yanking her hand away after the debate.

    • Gina says:

      I completely agree. Mel isn’t doing shit to get him re-elected.

      To me, it’s very noticeable it’s not Mel.

  8. Tootsie McJingle says:

    Real Melania only smiles like that around Barack Obama.

  9. Emily says:

    Good call on Fauxlania being one of the secret service. I wonder if McDonald even notices.

  10. Mabs A'Mabbin says:

    Real Mel hasn’t smiled like that since her child was born.

  11. Sheila D says:

    I remember reading that Melania cried the night Trump was declared the president and by the next morning she was furious. Bolted back to NYC and re-negotiated her pre-nup. She didn’t sign up for the role the first time and she isn’t doing it again. At least I truly hope not, she is as loathsome as T Rump.

  12. SM says:

    What is this fuss about. Fake Melania goes hand in hand with fake news, fake presidency, fake taxes, fake hair and skin, etc.

  13. MaryContrary says:

    I really think that looks like Hope Hicks in a wig.

    • ChillyWilly says:

      I kinda think it looks like Hicks too! If he gets 4 more years (God forbid) they are totally going to switch out Mel for Hope Hicks and hope we don’t notice like Darren on Bewitched.

    • Korra says:

      Except it looks nothing like Hicks. She has a much flatter facial profile.

  14. Sparky says:

    I think that part of the reason that the fake Malaria is being brought out has to do with the warmth of the Bidens’ marriage. People commented on this after both debates and Jill Biden has been out on the campaign trail with Joe and solo. Trump can’t stand any aspect of his life being less than the best so he has to show he has an even more supportive wife.

  15. Div says:

    Okay, so I know some people think it’s a conspiracy theory…but I 100% believe it’s not the real Melania and instead is some body double like you all theorize. The nose and jaw are different, and different in a way that can’t be explained away by angles/shadows/etc. I wonder if her marriage with Trump really is so tattered—allegedly she hates Ivanka—that it’s come to this?

    I think real Melania is a hateful person, but I think even she’s disgusted by Trump (who is even more hateful) and that’s why he has to trot out a body double who doesn’t physically recoil from him.

  16. Merricat says:

    It is very Trump to think that his actual wife can be replaced by any number of other women without anyone knowing. I mean, he thinks all women are interchangeable.

    • GreenEyes says:

      You summed it up perfectly Merricat!

    • Jay says:

      Exactly! I picture her holed up in New York, watching daytime tv and maxing out her credit card while she still can, and answering any phone call with a DC area code with a little *coff* No, couple more days of rest, then I’ll be fine…*coff* yeah, better make it a week.

    • Seraphina says:

      PRICELESS AND TRUE! Nicely stated Merricat.

  17. Marigold says:

    We notice. But do his supporters? They aren’t the brightest.

    • LOLikes says:

      @Marigold “We notice. But do his supporters? They aren’t the brightest.” OMG greatest comment ever. Spit out Coffee Comment!!

    • February-Pisces says:

      Even if he walked hand in hand with Putin in a wig, his supporters would still believe him.

  18. Big Bertha says:

    I cannot wait for Dr. Jill.

    • Chrissy says:

      Wouldn’t if be great to have a educator as FLOTUS? Another highly educator and respected woman in the WH. Hopefully it will help shine a light on the sorry state of public education in the US.

  19. RoyalBlue says:

    Melania can’t stand being around her husband and refuses to do most of these events with someone who disgusts her. I think she is also lazy like Kate and says, she is not doing more than 3-5 events a week

  20. Murphy says:

    I’m surprised they don’t use her more often, she’s more willing to act like a happy spouse than the real Melania is.

  21. February-Pisces says:

    I’m surprised that trump doesn’t just replace melania with this lookalike permanently. Would anyone even care? Probably not, he could just say it was plastic surgery lol! I’m pretty sure that’s what kris Jenner did with old Kylie, got a whole new girl to replace her lol! New Kylie doesn’t even have the same personality as the old one.

    • bettyrose says:

      LMAO! So true. Literally no one cares whether Melania shows up at appearances (except for the hilarity of their obvious hostility toward each other).

  22. bettyrose says:

    Let’s all be honest with ourselves. If we could send a double out there some days, we absolutely would. (Though hopefully not as a means of avoiding our own spouse).

  23. Sayrah says:

    So freaking weird

  24. Blueskies says:

    Not a molecule of integrity in any of their bodies. This absolute monstrosity of an “administration” will go down as the most insane things in history. Let’s hope it’s a one-off.

  25. Other Renee says:

    This has a Stepford Wives vibe. Totally creepy. How many times has Trump threatened her with, “You could be replaced and no one would even notice!”

  26. Golly Gee says:

    “It’s absolutely bonkers to me that in the year of our lord Beyonce 2020, the Trump administration really thinks that they can use a Melania stand-in and NO ONE WILL NOTICE.

    It’s not that they don’t think anyone will notice, it’s that they don’t give a f*€k if anyone notices or not. If the media or social media comment on it, Trump will just do his fake outrage act and cry fake news.

  27. Stacy Dresden says:

    Over here trying to figure out how to dress as Fauxlania for Halloween

  28. Yeaz says:

    Gold diggers are among the most soulless I’ve met. Just hollow strategists. I think they latch onto another narcissist & it works- symbiotic. Likely she negotiated for only x amount of appearances- hence wig wearing body doubles -she doesn’t need to work that hard.

  29. Lucy says:

    I think HE doesn’t even really know. How aware could he be, really?

  30. Bread and Circuses says:

    For the record, I don’t think there is a fake Melania, even though that helicopter photo would be the best evidence of it yet — she does look weird there, especially around the jawline.

    It’s just that the last time people were claiming fake Melania had turned out, I did a photoshop comparison of photos and decided that no, it really was her, just in stronger lighting, less makeup, and a big ol’ pair of sunglasses.

    • Bread and Circuses says:

      Also, if there is a fake Melania being used right now?

      It might be because the real Melania is still pretty sick. COVID19 affects some people for months after they’re supposedly recovered. We haven’t heard whether she or Barron are recovered yet, and it’s not likely we will because this administration doesn’t want to officially say COVID19 exists; that might alienate the whackadoodles who still think it’s a hoax.

    • Kkat says:

      They have different teeth

    • Mignionette says:

      The theory has pretty much been proved. In fact I suspect there is more than one. One of the fake Melania’s is a few inches shorter than real Melania and that is how Trump was caught out.

      The infamous kidney operation was partly Melania holding Trump to ransom as she renegotiated her pre-nup.

  31. Deeanna says:

    There is no question in my mind that those are two different sets of teeth in the above photos. However, I sent the photos off to a dentist friend of mine for a professional opinion. Will post back here if/when I get an answer.

    When you blow up the fake’s photo it appears there is a discoloration/defect/repair at the top of the right lateral incisor near the gumline.

  32. Black Betty says:

    I’ve never seen the real Melania that happy lol

  33. sara says:

    I never really saw this “fake melania” stuff, but the teeth make it pretty obvious. Wow.

  34. AmyJ1125 says:

    Funniest part of it all to me (funny in the helpless, nihilist way of the world right now, not HAHA), is if she put on a mask like she is supposed to, it would help the illusion dramatically.

  35. Roo says:

    You can see differences in the teeth, jawline and shape of nose. Also height and hip size. I think there’s also a height difference.

  36. nb says:

    I think these photos are the most interesting so far. Compared to the “smiling” photo on the left the real Melania has fuller lips, she does not show her gums when she smiles, her smile tilts up at the ends whereas this one tilts downwards, and her 2 front teeth are longer and more square. I honestly don’t know if there’s a fake Melania or not but this is definitely the most damning evidence I’ve seen. Unless maybe she toned down on the lip fillers and it changed her smile a bit? Still doesn’t explain the teeth difference though.
