Melania Trump’s speechwriter is a registered Democrat

Pardon moi if this seems overly suspicious...

...but didn't the alleged plagiarism come to light awfully quickly?

Might it be possible that this was a Clintonian dirty trick?

Why do I keep have this feeling that we are being played?

In what way?

I was of the opinion the kerfuffle aimed at Melania was nothing more than a 'shiny object' meant to distract. And it worked.

Earlier on night #1, the Republicans had a major presentation on Benghazi and the Obama-Clinton screw-ups and lies. That was devastating. The MSM/DEMs needed something to deflect from that. So, for the next 2 days, the headlines have been about plagiarism, not about the Benghazi disaster.

Recall in 2012 that every time the GOP seemed to be making points, the MSM found distractive headlines to direct attention to minutia. They are doing the same now.

O.K.,, the hullabaloo is over now, right?

Yep! She offered to resign but the Trump group didn't accept it. Good for them, and an in your face "Screw YOU" to the MSM who tried to make this a story and the fools here who fell for it...........

You might be able to pick out a couple of resident folks in this photo.........

Most people in the professional side of politics are NOT true believers. They have their job, they do their job, and whether or not they like the candidate and actually want them to win. I know this confuses the true believers who expect it to be more than a job, but in reality it’s a job.

“Apparently she offered her resignation but Trump wouldn’t take it .”

That’s a mistake.

I remember reading a long time ago about the democrats plan to “permeate” the republican party, in particular the consultant class.

Watching Romney seemingly purposely losing the last election, I believe the dems have succeeded.

Fire her, and route out the rest of them.

To paraphrase Marcos Tullius Cicero - ‘A campaign cannot survive treason from within’.

People need to get it in their heads Soros will stop at nothing to stop Trump. He has infiltrated the Trump campaign I fear, and unless Donald get’s serious about sorting it out Hellary will be president

[Da Bilge Troll]

So are some of the Trump kids!

[Lopeover]

You got that right.

[Defiant]

Ya gotta be smarter than that.

“To paraphrase Marcos Tullius Cicero - ‘A campaign cannot survive treason from within’.”

Lee, Cuccinelli, and Kasich would case in point.

Every time some media created nothing burger shiny object gets tossed out there, we have some newly signed up ppl coming in to give advice and state their concern...Concern noted.

I see this as a good thing. This will serve as a reminder to the entire Trump family that there are all sorts of dangers out there, and they need to triple-check everything anyone does on their behalf.

This family is super smart, and they'll learn with every mistake and only get better and better.

....."Why do I keep have this feeling that we are being played?".....

Because I told you from the beginning. Trump is a Dem, always has been a Dem, gives money to Dems, his friends are Dems. Being a Dem carries baggage with it, such as lying. Lying all the time about everything. He's still better than Hillary, but God's judgement is coming to this land no matter who wins.

Easier way to fire her without appearing an ogre given her long history as his co-author. Who knows firing her may trigger false allegations regarding him given her involvement in his books. Better to nicely marginalize her and then after the election can her.

[j.argese]

Don’t be a idiot.

[CaptainK]

I posted the night it happened it was either a Hillary or Cruz mole.

Donald may not have fired her, but I doubt her services will be needed in the future.

[ladyjane]

I believe her story.

You're lucky not to be cynical.

At this point I believe nothing I hear from any politician.

And if Cruz was the nominee (will never happen) that would indicate in and of itself that we are judged. Head for the hills because Cruz would screw the nation.
