Statement on Melania Trump Speech
"In writing her beautiful speech, Melania's team of writers took notes on her lifes inspirations, and in some instances included fragments that reflected her own thinking. Melanias immigrant experience and love for America shone through in her speech, which made it such a success.
-Jason Miller, Senior Communications Advisor
“they are too identical not to have been plagiarism”
No.
No they are not.
I find it funny that people think the splice shows that.
Melania makes the same points, but with better wording and much, much better delivery.
Melania is likely to replace Catherine Zeta Jones... gadzooks!
So all that the Dims have is to critize her speech?
Barack Obama Was Accused of Lifting Words From Governor Deval Patrick
YouTube speech of a 2006 talk given by Deval Patrick, the governor of Massachusetts, says the site. Says Plagiarism Today, In Patricks speech, he used many of the same quotes as well as very similar phrasing. Obama said he shared ideas with Patrick, who defended him after the allegations were made, said Plagiarism Today.

Ivana and Marla must be reviewing every moment they spent with Donald, at this juncture. I feel for the children and hope that both the other mothers will be honored with a spot at the Inaugural Ball. Donald appears to have found the perfect woman for himself and to be very much in love with her, and she with him. Either that, or they are both just incredible marketing geniuses.
I think they better stop saying it wasn’t the same. Admit it...obviously, one of the speech writers screwed up. The longer this goes on, the worse it’s gonna be. I am voting for Trump and have been defending him all morning. Please don’t flame me.
I agree with you. This was definitely an unforced error. Given that this speech was weeks in the making, someone should have realized the similarities and avoided them. Unfortunately the media and online focus (including FR) is on this. The buzz should be about Luttrell, Clarke, Flynn, Smith, Shaw, Geist. There were many amazing and emotional speeches last night that are now overshadowed.
The argument that others have done it doesn't matter. We know there's a different level of scrutiny for us. Hopefully this story will be in the rear view mirror by tomorrow.
I’m gonna start spamming this across the Melania Trump speech threads:
Anyone who finds fault with Melania over her speech wouldnt be voting for Trump anyway and is a smarmy little weasel-like, pathetic, beta-male or bull-dyke, pokemon fanboy, prius driving, tree hugging, gerbil loving, basement dwelling, safe-space seeking, emotionally fragile, gender confused, common core loving, tattoo-faced, dishonorable, unicorn loving, brony, buzzard-puke, scab picking, puss filled abscess, bile bathing, sewage swimming, scum licking, toe jam tasting, fart sniffing, bogger eating, spitoon slurping, thunder-bucket guzzling, low-information, pant-soiled, lazy, man-purse carrying, neanderthal, whiny little bitch.
Bill could star in the next zombie movie as a zombie! No make-up required.
I seen him adjust his cock on the Ellen Degenerate show. I don’t watch that show, I just saw the you tube of that nugget.
Ok still disagree
They are truly obnoxious little jackasses, arent they?
The pillorying of Melania on FR today is nauseating.
Always with the imprimatur of ‘concern’, of course !
The splice and the transcript DOES show that the similarities are significant to rise to plagiarism. It doesn’t matter if the copier is prettier or has better delivery. Sheesh.
This is what they call the red herring. Instead of talking about the mom who lost her son speech, we are talking about this garbage.
That is why this is so horrible. If the speechwriter hadn’t done this, we could have the focus on Benghazi or ANYTHING ELSE today. This was a dishonesty that we can’t afford to make if we are calling Hillary the liar.
I disagree. Trump was so proud of his wife. She’s a laughing stock today. Trump is furious. Neither knew this was a cheap hack off another speech. No way this was a strategy. This was a very bad speech writer.
If the press had any intelligence at all they would know that a intelligent American woman would not purposely take anything from a American Hating wookie.
Nah they would of made up something else but thankfully Trump is not playing the medias game
Star of David, logos, white elevators the game is obvious but Trump is calling them on it good for him
Melania is the victim, that is for sure.
