fakemelania gets new life on Twitter after President Trump and first lady's visit to Alabama.
Thousands of Twitter users resurrected a farcical conspiracy theory on Saturday, once again flooding the social media site with memes and jokes about #FakeMelania. This time, the comments came pouring in after pictures emerged of President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump in Alabama, where the pair were visiting Tornado-ravaged communities.
The conspiracy last found a wide audience in 2018 and focused on a few grainy images of Melania Trump leaving Air Force One after the plane touched down in Brussels. In that case, the hashtag #WheresMelania began picking up steam on leading social platforms. "This is not Melania," Vargas, who has roughly 80,000 online followers, tweeted at the time."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." The post garnered more than 100,000"likes" and another 60,000 retweets.
"Once again, we find ourselves consumed with a ridiculous non-story when we could be talking about the work the first lady is doing on behalf of children, including the opioid crisis that is gripping our nation," East Wing communications director Stephanie Grisham told CNN the October statement.
