Melania Trump, Donald Trump’s third wife gave what most thought was a good speech on the first night of the Republican National Convention, but those with ears for details have picked on the fact she plagiarised more than a paragraph from a 2008 convention speech the wife of Barrack Obama, Michelle gave.
The thing is, Trump may come out to say, does anyone have a copyright to English words—insanely arguing that his wife only puts words together which happened to be exactly as the outcome of Michelle Obama also having put words together in 2008. And ask, what’s the big deal?
The Republicans are really screwed—Trump and his wife can’t seem to get their acts together.
This is the text from Melanie Trump’s speech:
My parents impressed on me the value of that you work hard for what you want in life. That your word is your bond and you do what you say and keep your promise. That you treat people with respect. Show the values and morals in in the daily life. That is the lesson that we continue to pass on to our son.
We need to pass those lessons on to the many generations to follow. [Cheering] Because we want our children in these nations to know that the only limit to your achievement is the strength of your dreams and your willingness to work for them.
And this is that of Michelle Obama:
And Barack and I were raised with so many of the same values: that you work hard for what you want in life; that your word is your bond and you do what you say you’re going to do; that you treat people with dignity and respect, even if you don’t know them, and even if you don’t agree with them.
And Barack and I set out to build lives guided by these values, and pass them on to the next generation. Because we want our children — and all children in this nation — to know that the only limit to the height of your achievements is the reach of your dreams and your willingness to work for them.

Well Chris, apparently it runs in the family. Donald Trump visited POTUS 2012 tweet after FLOTUS speech.
Tump family is a disgrace. They can’t hire someone to write speech for them too?
