John Fetterman is selling 'body double' merchandise after he became a conspiracy theory
Conspiracy theorists are suggesting Democratic Senator John Fetterman has been replaced by a body double, and Fetterman had the funniest response. The past week many conspiracy theorists have begun baselessly suggesting that Sen. Fetterman has been replaced with a body double or cloned. Theories have been posted across social media, with some claiming that Fetterman's tattoos have "disappeared", thus he has been replaced. Others claim he looks different in a range of photos, of course meaning the only explanation can be a body double. There seem to be a few reasons as to why conspiracy theorists believed Fetterman has been replaced. One is due to the change in facial hair, which has apparently completely stumped theorists: Others are claiming that the symptoms of his stroke which he suffered last year have suddenly disappeared, rather than being the result of speech therapy: Others have also falsely claimed that his tattoos have 'disappeared', when in reality they are just on a different part of his arm than the photo they used: There is, of course, no evidence to suggest that Fetterman has been replaced by a body double. Fetterman responded to the bizarre claims by joking they the theories are "all true" when speaking to reporters on Tuesday. He called himself "Senator Guy Incognito," referring to a Simpsons character that is a doppelgänger of Homer Simpson. In an even funnier move, Fetterman has begun selling t-shirt's with "John Fetterman's Body Double" written on them. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.
