Anyone ever hear of the website mr-conservative.com?

Someone shared this on FB so I took a risk and went to the site listed at the bottom of the photo, and to the FB page included in the post https://www.facebook.com/CC4Trump/photos/a.630459280494155.1073741828.630146183858798/792971647576250/?type=3&fref=mentions

I honestly cannot tell if it is a serious site, or a parody!! For one thing, confusing Caitlyn Jenner and Melania trump just seems too far fetched to be serious.

Also -
Tom Hanks was born in 1956.
Melania Knavs - Trump was born in 1970.

As a time-travel machine has never been invented (evidence - where are all the time travelers?), this story is pure hokum.

That was obvious from the picture. However, it doesn't take much to trick a frighteningly sizable portion of the population.

I have a gut feeling that it has a lot of "true" followers.

I'm guessing this could be a site from a troll farm. They know their audience very well; written English is a bit of a challenge for them, though.

But, the more I read, the more I am getting the vibe that it is nothing more than a trap to showcase morons, and perhaps also a site for people to unleash their inner sarcastic snark.

Melania a "tasteful" model?? Well, I guess that 'taste' is a subjective term.

I've been informed that this is NOT a parody site or FB page. However, in reading the FB comments, people are sure treating it like one.

Maybe it's some sort of psycho/social experiment from someone's thesis.

If it isn't a parody, a lot of people are treating it like one, and it's hilarious reading.

They want our health care too be like Englands and are taking all are money to difend there selves against the communists. NATO must be stoped! Also Germany just past a law that transgeners can have there own birth certificats. And dont even get me started on France with all there food and cloths! We will have to exchange all are dollers for uros if this is aloud to go on. STOP THE URINATION OF AMERICA! Thank you and God bless all yuor hard work!
