Michelle's speech writer stole it from the future.

I guess Trump University forgot to put in rules against plagiarism.

Trump has been eerily quiet on Twitter tonight. You can bet if the Dems did this he'd be up until the early morning slamming them.

Seriously, though, it's a shame they didn't have "DAD'S TROPHY" written across her bottom like on Dexter's Laboratory.

While watching this charade, one of the things that I've noticed is that Trump will talk about small pieces of information that form his argument, then he has a conclusion, which he states two or three times in succession, with little variance.
Watching the highlights of his debates and speeches,but usually not live, it started to wear on me.
Its very interesting, I don't recall any other politician doing that, but thinking back he has used that technique even before he was a politician. His MO when challenged is to diminish who made the statement even if true, for example if someone said something negative about him, he would respond with something like, "She's a loser, a very big loser, and no one would stand behind that loser" (thinking Rosie O'Donnel here and others).
This is not Trump's accident, it is his way, and has been for a long time.
And now his wife has plagiarized Michelle Obama's speech. That is beyond anything I would ever expect in a presidential campaign. How did this happen? An explanation will be required, and there are two options: (1) a speech writer cribbed it, which means Melaina lied about writing it herself, or (2) Melaina did write it cribbing Michelle's speech, which has other consequences.
I feel bad for the US. Clinton or Trump.

Melania dropped a Rick roll in the middle or her speech too. "He will never, ever give up. And he will never, ever let you down".
I am not even making that up. Hilarious.
I love love love this election.

So... Michelle Obama is one of Melania's 'life inspirations'? Good to know.
Honestly, I'm trying to figure out how this even happens. Best I can guess is that some hack speechwriter started by pasting in a whole bunch of inspiring stuff that sounded about right, with the intent of going back and rewriting it. He just did a few cleanup changes on the first pass. But then forgot to actually go back and rewrite this. I mean, nobody can have actually thought that they could get away with this without be exposed within 10 minutes, right?

That's a pretty juvenile way of looking at it.
It will make a difference, you just haven't educated yourself on the topic.

Do you? You say a particular candidate will make a difference (whatever that means) but don't explain anything. Look at the last few terms has it made a lick of difference, really? No the U.S. government has proceeded as usual doing whatever the hell they want invading whoever they want piling up debt not giving the slightest care to tax payers.
What is incredible to me is how much piling on there is on Trump but the left completely ignores the Hillary the biggest phony liar untrustworthy of a politician I think anyone has ever seen. Way back when Obama actually had something good to say but now of course praises Clinton.
Bernie Sanders is also a complete sellout he slammed Hillary about taking corporate donations calling her corrupt (a serious understatement) then turns around and endorses her. The whole lot of these people are idiots.
