Melania Trump's speech plagiarized !!!

Melanie Trump gave Michelle's speech to her speechwriter because she liked it, along with other material. There was no intent to plagiarize the words, but they shared the same sentiments. These sentiments are found in almost the same words in The Seven Habits Of Highly Successful People by Steven Covey. Shared resources do not constitute plagiarism.

This is such a non issue. The Trump family has shown nothing but class and intelligence this entire convention. They are exceptional. I didn't even want to watch the convention, but I got roped into it. I never expected to be impressed by Trump or his family, but they are very impressive.


Melania's speechwriter offered to resign. Trump refused to accept it, calling it "an innocent mistake" which is what it was. This issue was over before it began. Move on.


I've watched conventions since the 60's. This is the best run, most classy, and most interesting convention I've ever seen. It's possible I could start to like Trump! Originally Posted by CuteOldGuy

to listen to people like froth at the mouth chris mathews you'd think melania was the one who blithely spread government secrets using unsecure servers so her schemes to fund a criminal enterprise could be kept secret
Is that like admitting you destroyed evidence in a Federal investigation?

Or is it like lying about destroying the evidence and claiming you didn't know any better .... or ...

telling your daughter it was a terror attack while telling the U.S. citizens it was a video that caused the deaths of an ambassador and brave warriors ..?

I'm glad you whiners finally set the "bar" where it ought to be in these personal "investigations" .... Now how many police officers were shot and/or killed while you all are whining about someone using the words in a public speech from another public speech? Or do give a shit how many were shot or killed?

I'm glad you all dismiss the intentional mishandling of CLASSIFIED AND HIGHLY CLASSIFIED information by YOUR CANDIDATE (A FEDERAL FELONY), but are so concerned about who wrote a speech for a spouse of a candidate!!!!! Originally Posted by LexusLover

People, it's actually OK to say we have a couple of loser shitheads running for POTUS. In the voting booth, you'll have to decide which one is the biggest loser, most embarrassing, conniving, evil, clueless, hopeless, dickless shithead. And vote for the other. YUCK.....

He also doesn't pay his bills.

He also has been part of more than 4,000 lawsuits.

Great experience.

He needs to meet WE's attorney! He'll need one after some dumbass leaves the GOP convention and tries to shoot HRC.

This howling mob scene isn't America.

How many jobs has Hillary created in the private sector?

"Private sector" means nongovernmental jobs out of nontax dollars!

But that lying sack of treasonous shit can sure create those speeches!!!!!!

Wondering if Trumpolin's speech tonight will start out like this:

"Four score and seven years ago, I decided I am the man. Look at me, I'm a kitten in a tree...who has one thing to fear: fear itself! Ask NOT what your Prez can do for you, ask what Melinia or the kids will do! I'm so fabulous!!! LET ME HEAR IT FOR ME!!!!"
