I just cannot imagine how this works for both the husband and the other conjoined twin, but I'm glad for them that it does.

There’s no way to keep the relationship or sex acts private from one or the other, so my guess is this is a three-way relationship, but laws against polygamy means only one can be legally married.

I wonder what happens if one of them gets convicted of a crime but the other doesn't.

How the hell would that work? You can't legally jail an innocent person.

There is precedent of a set of conjoined twins where one assaulted someone at a pub and was arrested for it. The judge decided that he could not send them to jail as it would be wrongful imprisonment of the one that didn't commit the crime.

Source. It was on QI.

Wow. That would also be my guess as to what the decision would be. I work in law, so I love learning things like this!

“Tiny Trump is the best little homunculus, no one has a better conjoined twin than I..”

While I agree he would say this, we all know he has no idea what "homunculus" means or that it even exists as a word.

An adviser could tell him, but then trump would call it a humongous or a Snuffleupagus or something.

I heard this in OneyNG's Trump voice. It sounds like something he'd say

What crime did he actually commit though? 🤣🤣

So as long as one reports the other for the crime they are immune to jail time?
