A claim that Melania Trump has a double at 1st looks plausible as nose lips some what differing but i found a video of her at same event without the sun glasses and pretty confident its her..

Would anyone notice if Melania Trump was replaced with a double?
While President Donald Trump is something of an open book, Melania Trump is just as much of an enigma. She says little in public, makes few appearances, has no personal cause, has hired scant staff, and we know little about the relationship she has with Donald – and what we know isn’t good. We also have very little knowledge of how she wants to use her lofty status to make the U.S. a better place.
So when a conspiracy theory recently sprung up about Melania being “replaced” with a body double to stand next to Donald while he bloviates, it had at least a patina of plausibility to it.

Melania trump wears snake-trimmed coat that could be worth this much. When you picture a classic trench coat, Melania Trump's version probably doesn't come to mind. But we have become accustomed to expecting the unexpected from the first lady. Melania has her

We’ve ID’d the mystery woman in those Melania-Trump-impostor rumors. (It’s Melania Trump.)

It began with a guy who sells hemp syrup for a living.

This is not Melania. 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

9:30 PM - Oct 17, 2017




Joe Vargas speculated on Twitter that the woman standing next to President Trump as he prepared to travel to a Secret Service training center in Maryland — call her Woman X — was not, in fact, Trump’s wife, Melania. It was instead some mystery woman, outfitted with big sunglasses and long hair (a wig????) and told to stand next to the president. “Mind blowing,” Vargas said.

Oh, and, in case you think, “Hmm. That actually looks like Melania” — Vargas would like you to know that you are wrong, and he has proof. To wit:

And in case you’re still thinking, “Uhh, those are photos of the same person” — some other people that were replying to Vargas have even more proof.

Part of the embrace of this theory is driven by people having a lark, certainly. How sincere Vargas is, we don’t know; that his Twitter username is currently a URL to a business suggests that he’s perhaps not entirely sincere. But part of it, too, is the tendency Americans have these days to assume the worst, most nefarious things about their political opponents, no matter how far afield from what seems logical. Or, even, because it’s so far afield. These days, the more outrageous the idea, it seems, the more likely it is to meet with adherents. I mean: Pizzagate.

One accolade is in order: Vargas has succeeded in introducing the least credible rumor about the Trump White House that we’ve seen yet. Yes, it has slipped past The Secret Service Agent With The Fake Arms.

it just depends on how the light is hitting her nose, and how much contouring she has on it each day

I was going to go with the nose contouring thing, but you beat me to it deirdre, as usual.

She seems to be experimenting with different ways to do her make-up, since Secret Service
informed her that, no, she does not qualify for the Witness Protection program...
 
a British journalist (Marina Hyde) has claimed to have started this "fake news" story

in the piece Marina shows a tweet at 11:12 am - 13 Oct 2017

Absolutely convinced Melania is being played by a Melania impersonator these days. Theory: she left him weeks ago

https://www.theguardian.com/lifeand...d-melania-trump-body-double-conspiracy-theory

Finally, some fake news I can get behind. Indeed, I can’t help feeling it is fake news I am literally behind, having pointed out the top-level conspiracy last Friday evening, within seconds of NBC tweeting a video of Donald Trump being interviewed at a Secret Service training facility while Melania stood silently next to him. “Absolutely convinced Melania is being played by a Melania impersonator these days,” my painstaking investigation read. “Theory: she left him weeks ago.”

Imagine my pride to find that by Thursday morning, this cobblers had percolated all the way up to news Valhalla – AKA sections on Good Morning Britain and Sky News – having been fanned by various nutjob social media accounts in the US. Furthermore, it had been smartened up for appearance in
the Washington Post and USA Today and so on. In the case of Sky News, the entire backdrop was given over to a splitscreen of “Melania” at the Secret Service facility and a verified Melania image, with the chyron demanding: “DOES THE FIRST LADY HAVE A BODY DOUBLE?”


PS for what it's worth I think Melania Trump comes over pretty well all things considered and looks fantastic too
 
Snopes have suggested some video / image manipulation or use of poor distorted blurry footage to enhance the claim.
She did look very wooden & bit nqr in portions of the camera interview and thats what drew my eye. It maybe be the strain of office or the Botox impacting.

The evidence provided above is flimsy at best. In fact, it appears that the conspiracy theorists pushing this rumor purposely used a blurry (and possibly distorted) video of Melania Trump in order to make this claim seem more plausible.

that's weird. the video isn't distorted ( I linked the original above ) . they just filmed it off a television or computer screen.

Where did you get that side-by-side shot? (snopes wont load fully for me).
 
If people are still not convinced then you could do a lip print comparison from close up images.

here's an HD image from the day:

And an HD image of Milania in a similar facial pose:

Cropping and comparing the lips.


Slightly different lip position, but look especially to the left of the center of the top lip.

and people wonder why ladies in the public eye get botox injections :)

Also want to point out that once she gets a collagen lip injection her lips will change a bit for a bit. (she might already have collagen lips because I can only get that horizontal wrinkle if I push my lip up a bit. my lip wrinkles all go up and down. ) My point being, we have to be careful assuming someone is not someone just because cosmetic procedures may change her features a bit.

Actually, a British journalist, Marina Hyde, thinks she started the theory!

As you will note, this lone act of rogue content creation has now given me an item for this week’s column. In business terms, I have vertically integrated, and now control my own supply line of facetious bull****, about which some more facetious bull*** can be written in due course. It is, quite simply, the dream.
