#SpeechGate: Who Set Up Melania Trump?
fitnews ^ | 7/19 | fit

... According to the operative – who ran a pro-Trump political organization prior to the “First in the South” presidential primary – many of the “new hands” ushered aboard the Trump Train in recent weeks are not loyal to their new employer. Their allegiances remain with U.S. Senator Ted Cruz of Texas – the second-place GOP finisher who bitterly denounced Trump when he dropped out of the presidential race back in May.

“I told you ‘Never Trump’ would infiltrate his campaign’s most inner sanctum,” the aide told us late Monday. “And they clearly succeeded. Knowingly plagiarizing Michelle Obama’s speech? Wow.”

According to the aide, Miller is one of several establishment “Republican” operatives loyal to Cruz who are working hard to sabotage Trump’s campaign from within – “like ISIS infiltrating the refugee population.”..

97% of it wasn’t “plagiarized”. There are only 30 seconds of 17 minutes in question. What about them??

I too feel horribly bad for her, and Donald. This wasn’t their fault. Poor thing, he was so proud and now she is made a laughingstock.

This is how the oligarchy kills. Sometimes derision hurts worse than bullets.

Manaford said the “dump pence at last minute” is wrong. He was there and it didn’t happen.

Come on, people.

You can spend a whole weekend with a 14 year old girl, taking her to the movies, playing Pokemon, hamburgers, French fries, even throw in a bible study. But those 5 minutes of sex with her kind of ruin the whole deal.

So Melania Trump said some of the same things and used the same/similar wording as Moochelle Obama...It’s not like Moochelle made some great discovery or had some novel insight into the human condition and Melania tried to claim it for her own...

Melania simply repeated her own life experience as did Moochelle...I happen to believe Melania Trump a damn sight before I’d ever believe Moochelle had those sentiments and ever shared such solid values with her offspring...

Actually, it’s the Left who should be getting over IT (as if there’s something to get over in the first place)...

By the Left’s “reasoning”, once a topic is discussed or a turn of phrase used, it becomes the exclusive property of the user and cannot be repeated or it’s plagiarism...By that logic, all are plagiarists...

NOT “the speech verbatium”

Some are saying the whole thing was verbatim. It wasn't. Pretty simple.

Oh puh-leeze. No way in the world these Media maggots and GOPe dorks make Melania into a “laughingstock.” No way in the world.

I would like for you to answer this question to yourself

If you were Trump, and your beautiful wife had just been humiliated in front of the whole world would you:

Ignore it and say “Oh it was just a coincidence that my speech writer came up with the exact same phrase as Michelle’s speech”

OR

Would you move heaven and earth to get down to what happened with that speech to find out if you have a trojan horse trying to sell out your family and destroy you.

I would certainly hope he would also defend a not-so-beautiful wife.

Manafort may be the problem.

““”that you work hard for what you want in life, that your word is your bond and you do what you say “”

Anyone in the English speaking world could have used these same exact words in the same exact phrase or sentence.

This is not plagiarism but repeatable cliches and truisms spoken by many over much time.

Perhaps Melania had help with her speech from a sloppy lazy speechwriter.

I doubt she would research and then copy anything in another person's speech. Melania is way to intelligent.

Only a dishonest press determined to destroy the Trumps would cheap-shot like this.

The phases are far to generic and common to be plagiary. They can be found with similar words in hundreds of speeches. The purpose of these stories is distraction. This will change not change a thing in the election. These stories intended purpose is to get people to waste time talking about things that don’t matter.
