There is no crime if done by the leader.
This is not a point of dishonesty against Dr. Carson. That is only possible from others.
Dr Carson stated his staff is now working with Trump so it was not really plagiarism - Trump is pushing Dr Carson’s message is what is happening. The staffer that write that op-ed for Trump is probably the same person that wrote it for Dr. Carson.
...and you appear to hate Trump
Or, Carson is now an advisor to Trump and he has absorbed what he deems good advice.
. Side note .
Plagiarism is not a crime by the way. It’s a civil offense requiring the offended party (original author) to take offense. Material used with permission or on advice is generally not actionable unless the source required citation.
OK, Trump can’t write for the Washington Post... if he was running for managing editor I would be very concerned.
Donating for years to Libs. All Business related expenses.
Changing EVERY key position in the last year. Just like Reagan.
Being profane and boorish. Telling it like it is.
Changing positions three times in one debate. Shows he can change.
The Cruz supporters sure don’t like Ben.
Reminds me of when Trump, after a debate says something like maybe they are auditing me because I am a Christian.
This is after Carson made his comments about being audited after the prayer breakfast.
It is odd, to say the least.
Did you hear about his Rick Santorum meeting before the election started? Basically, Trump was figuring out how to get the Blue Collar Conservatives. Say what we will about Trump, but he knows how to photocopy ideas.
Oh please.
The OpEd was written by the Carson campaign before he endorsed Trump I believe.
Now that he has endorsed Trump and there is a very similar OpEd.
Maybe the reporters ought to do a little more journalistic investigation and see if Carson gave his permission?
Or maybe Carson loaned him the same staffer who wrote it for him?
I am a Ted Cruz supporter, but seeing this level of attack before all the facts are even in is simply ridiculous.
Trump did not plagiarize Carson. Carson’s staff is now helping Trump.
They wrote an article and put Carson’s name on it. Later they wrote a similar article and put Trump’s name on it.
What’s the problem? One of Dr. Carson’s guys moved over to work for Trump. So he worked from the same basic research and political principles. As already speculated, likely both pieces were written by the same guy, from his notes.
THE OTHER SIDE OF THE COIN

FWIW, publish dates are not submission dates and submission dates are not original dates written.
were words plagiarized or ideas??
Words may be legally protected.
Ideas may be shared.
They are working together in this election...Dr Carson endorsed Trump. LOL, this election is getting so ridiculous. Here we have a guy who has won less than 25% of the primaries pretending he is actually winning and another guy who has won one primary who blatantly speaks of stealing the nomination! Then there is the people’s choice Donald Trump, fearlessly plodding forward overcoming every adversary in his way. Indeed, Mika from Scarborough today said she would like to Trump congress (she is angry with them) and would like to say “Trump you!” to them. Her first thought for a hero against the wiles and dishonesty of Washington was releasing Trump on them! It just doesn’t get any better than this.
except he probably said it with a little more energy.
OMG — I bet Trump doesn’t always come to a complete stop at a STOP sign — before proceeding thru an intersection!!!!!
