It is most likely that Trump used this ploy to get Melania's speech burnished in the media. He has done this before...and it works.

He is a master at manipulating the media with his pranks.

I have considered that the speech writer might have been trying to embarrass Melania, but that is too much of a reach.

“I have considered that the speech writer might have been trying to embarrass Melania, but that is too much of a reach. “

I’m with you. It is far too intentional. It’s hilarious watching the left make a big deal out of this. The side by side comparisons of “Mrs.” Obama and Mrs. Trump are even more hilarious.

Between this and the rickroll, all Trump has to say is nearly 24 hours were dedicated to four sentences in a speech by the future first lady by our glorious media. Nowhere near as much emotion or due diligence was on display when the Benghazi story broke.

What would be even more amazing is if Trump and Co. had something notarized stating that this whole ploy was intentional. However, that level of antics can cause mistrust.

I wish people would calm down and look at those that are making such a big deal out of this ... this is, believe it or not, going to *help* Trump. While the media will show the infamous four sentences, so many more are going to watch the entire thing on YouTube all because of this silly “outrage” on the left.

I was watching this speech on CBS last night. Shortly after it was over, they had Charlie Rose interviewing Mrs. Bill Clinton. You went from watching an angel speak to watching the Emperor from Star Wars get all wound up over the public not trusting her ... and it was so evident that Rose was pandering to her and afraid to ask her “tough questions” that most wouldn’t have a problem answering.

Now, people that normally would have never seen a frame of Trump’s wife’s speech are going to watch it. Then they’re going to watch the seahag speak. They’ll come to the proper conclusion that this entire outburst is nothing but political nonsense and Trump wins more support. Her speech was outstanding and needs to be seen by lots more people that would otherwise not watch it.

Let them keep on spreading the word for us ... others need to relax and just enjoy the show.

If that’s the case he knew the media would go overboard with it. A stark comparison to how they treat destroying emails/trading national secrets and favors for foundation cash/Benghazi/ etc. as meh but this one similar sentence is OMG a travesty, a serious issue to be talked about ad nauseum.

If anything it will create sympathy as the war on women comes from Democrats and unfortunately the grifter GOP class living on the nevertrump sinking ship.

He knows the media so you may have a good point.
