claim it to be "self-plagiarism," which is ridiculous for anyone in politics.

Ridiculous by the virtue that you cannot plagiarize yourself, regardless of the venue. A speech is not a paper being submitted for review, where you would have to give acknowledgement to the original author of the statement being referenced.

Not entirely true.

In an academic setting for a research paper you provide a citation when you quote, use a fact or statistic.
