US President-elect Donald Trump allegedly called Vice President Leni Robredo a “beautiful woman without brains” and slammed her for getting pregnant. At least this is what several websites have been claiming and these sites are being shared on Facebook by Marcos and Duterte fan pages.

If you might have noticed, all four fan pages even shared the article with the same caption.
The article was picked up by newstrendph.com, we traced the sources and found out that it was also published by websites like newsmediaph.com and newstitans.com, before we found its original publisher, which turned out to be the fake news site fox-channel.com.
It should be noted, too, that newstrendph.com is in Meme Buster’s list of fake and satire news sites for publishing articles from fake news sites without verifying them.

When we checked out the article on fox-channel.com, the fake news site claimed that Trump “blasted” Robredo and labelled her as a “beautiful woman without brains,” adding that the newly elected American president allegedly said that Robredo could be pregnant because “she does not reason.”
Trump was even quoted saying, “The rumor about her pregnancy should not be ignored, a beautiful woman without brains her private parts suffers the most. She is torturing her body and the reason is that she has no brains.”
Trump allegedly opined that as VP, Robredo should support President Rodrigo Duterte in serving the poor instead of working with the “enemies of change.”
Yet another statement attributed to Trump read, “Leni should be working with President Duterte to ensure the poor is served, and stop joking around with people’s future.”
However, all these alleged statements from Trump are completely made-up.
And this is not the first time fox-channel.com has made up direct statements from people to release fake news online. We’ve busted hoaxes from this site, such as Senator Leila De Lima hiring an Indian witch to confuse Duterte, Trump threatening Loida Lewis for disrespecting Duterte, and more.

So far, Trump has not mentioned Duterte or Robredo publicly in his speeches or media releases. What we know, though, is that Duterte revealed that Trump told him he is fighting drugs “the right away” during his congratulatory phone call with the US President-elect in December 2016.
Despite how obviously fake the article is, many still believed it, based on the comments in the Marcos and Duterte fan pages.
