Meet Donald Trump's Spanish doppelganger

Most people have a lookalike somewhere out there. A few may even count themselves lucky enough to have famous lookalikes. 

But what if your lookalike is not an ordinary celebrity, but the President of a powerful country?

When Spanish journalist Paula Vázquez set out to work on a story about how farmers were handling the current storms in northwestern Spain, she did not expect to stumble upon Dolores Leis Antelo, a woman who looks very much like the President of the United States, Donald Trump. 

Dolores Leis has been farming in Nanton, La Coruna for over 40 years. Dolores says she does not know exactly why her picture is causing so much hype, but guesses it could be because of the colour of her hair.  

Indeed, she and the President do have the same wispy, cream-coloured hair. And with that unassuming scowl on her face, she cuts an impressive copy of Trump.

The picture has brought a lot of attention to Dolores and her family, but because she does not own a smartphone, she has been able to avoid becoming overwhelmed.

Instead of busying herself making wild declarations about U.S. policy on social media, Dolores concerns herself with preventing moths from destroying her potato crop.
