John Fetterman Addresses Wacky Body Double Conspiracy Theory
Now that Sen. John Fetterman is back to work, he took the opportunity to address a Qanon conspiracy that went viral over the weekend, insisting that he was replaced with a body double. He posted a video in which he interrupts himself explaining that the rumor was false, posing as a fake body double. Via KARK.com:
“During my time during the hospital, the fringy fringies really came up with a conspiracy theory that I have a body double,” Fetterman said in the video. “And I just want you to know that’s just crazy. That’s not true.”
The video then cuts to Fetterman, wearing a different colored hoodie and athletic shorts, walking in the door and pretending to be the senator’s body double.
“Yo, dude, John, what event am I supposed to be doing this afternoon?” the fake body double Fetterman asked.
Both versions of Fetterman then look at the camera and shrug.
