Why weren’t those words stolen???

Melania said she wrote the speech. She said that in an interview.

she passed someone elses speech off as her own.

Did she get the speechwriters permission or Michelle’s?

It was stolen. That 23 word structure shows it was stolen. No one but Michelle or her speechwriter came up with that 23 word structure

Just admit she lifted a speech. It’s okay to say everyone does it or whatever platitude you want to make but the fact remains, she or her speechwriter stole it.

So what else do you want done about it? It was generic pablum that has been admitted to. Trump decided it was innocent and didn’t want to fire a long time employee.

Would you like a congressional investigation over a first lady speech segment? A do over primary? Someone arrested?

Seriously, move on. I called it plagiarism too but its a tiny drop in the ocean

They keep reporting that she said she wrote the speech. But what she said is that she wrote the speech WITH A LITTLE HELP. It sounds like it was mostly what she wanted to say, so she did feel it was mainly her work.

I don’t know how many times my husband & I have argued about who came up with an idea. Neither are trying to take credit for something we didn’t do, but when you are collaborating, it is easy to forget who said what.

Evidently, Melania had already been given a speech by professional speechwriters, but she didn’t like it and went to this woman who was obviously a friend if she helped write Donald’s books. Melania wanted to say things she was comfortable with. Someone should have run the speech through a software speech checker program.

The whole speech was stolen?

All that’s left is Melania is a thief and a liar. Oh well, guess I’ll vole for Killiary then.

How many words were in the entire speech?
