Trump said the media is spending more time talking about his wife’s speech, than H.Clinton’s email issue which threatened our national security.

I just wished this whole silly ‘controversy’ would go away. It doesn’t mean anything and is just so foolish. Only the MSM would keep this going on a Republican.

That is precisely why they are talking about Malania’s speech, to change the subject and distract people from all the bad news swirling around Clinton.

The part about admiring Moochele Obama was put in the statement to try and shut the liberals up. Will never work. The “plagerized” speech will be the only thing remembered when the GOP convention ends. The media will talk about it for the next four months. I have emailed all networks PROVING that Moochele Obama lifted the same words from other writers, but of course that story will never be reported. It’s fact. They all do it.

I don’t believe this part.

McIver explained that she included the passages from Obama’s speech after listening to Melania Trump read passages from the 2008 speech over the phone.

“Over the phone, she read me some passages from Mrs. Obama’s speech as examples. I wrote them down and later included some of the phrasing in the draft that ultimately became the final speech. I did not check Mrs. Obama’s speeches. This was my mistake, and I feel terrible for the chaos I have caused Melania and the Trumps, as well as to Mrs. Obama. No harm was meant.”

The MSM with the support/assistance of the NeverTrumpers at the convention.

Very similar lines appear in the movie John Q starring Denzel Washington from 2002

Moochie didn’t originate the core of this and the WH and MSM know it.

They were floored by the eloquence and sincerity of a true success story by an immigrant to the US and had to dreg up this sorry attack line...

They will drop it when Trump gets a bump in the polls because of the issue.

What I think is “what will MSNBC and CNN do now?”
The air was just let out of their key story.
Oh well guess its back to bashing convention speakers

When you read her statement on the Fox site, what SHOULD be impressing people is the fact that Donald refused to accept her resignation and what his reasons for that were.

Like that will ever happen.....

But once again, Trump shows himself a true leader, and one who inspires loyalty for the good folks who work for and with him.

Man, he’s gonna be a GREAT President. Bigly.

I’m sincerely amazed that they put in writing that Melania admires Michelle Obama. Did not see that coming.
