Did Trumps wife use some of Obama,s wife speech yes or no?
 
OMG --- how many of these threads do we need???
 
about as many as Hillary's email post since that's the way its done these days
 
Why is this is a poll? It's not a matter of opinion.
 
It wasn't word for word but, the difference is meaning what you say. Mike didn't believe a word of her comments.
 
I heard someone on the radio say the Twittersphere went from "Hey, Trump's wife is hot," to "She just lifted Michelle Obama's speech." in like 5 seconds.

Looking at the commonality of not just the words themselves, but the order of the words and of the entire phrases, the probability that she did not plagiarize Michelle Obama's words...is vanishingly minuscule.

Yep, #FamousMelaniaTrumpQuotes took off quite fast this morning.

When you and the rest of the right wingers make various threads on the same topic, do you rush into them telling people how many we need? Seems kind of out of place for you. Anywho, I voted yes. She clearly did. Whether it has been done before by others is irrelevant. She can be added to the list.

Clearly. The really interesting thing about it though is the chaos that it has revealed about Trump's campaign machine (such as it is). Nobody knows who's responsible for the plagiarism, nobody's taking blame, assigning blame, there are conflicting stories (the campaign spokesman claimed a "team of writers" wrote the speech while Melania claimed she had "as little help as possible")...the whole thing is just a bloody mess.
 
Giant who cares. It isn't like this hasn't been done by Hillary, Obama, and Michelle.

Yes, but does anybody really care?

You can be assured that this will never be forgotten.

I just shake my head at the number of threads on this when Nice and Dallas have just happened and when nobody has any interest in the murder of Qandell Baloch.

NO , they were two lines that were similar . and she gave that speech in her FIFTH language , And she never once said " For the first time , I'm proud to be an America " but Michelle DID !!!
I guess everyone forgot about Joe Biden , Obama , and Hillary coping large portions of speeches , and in Biden's case the entire speech ! :shock:

I guess it's OK that Trump is just like Biden, Obama, and Hillary then, huh?
 
LOL! Your POLL title is different from the question in your initial post.

The legit question is--did she use some similarly worded concepts that came from her own experience?

The answer is yes.

And so what?

This whole kerfuffle is Trump's best manipulation of the Media thus far in the campaign......but there are probably plenty more to come.

I watched the CNN anchorman (who was almost in tears--panties twisted into knots) trying for 20 minutes to make the Trump guy admit they'd done something wrong. Trump guy calmly says no, they didn't do anything wrong.

Anchorman was almost to the point of pounding his fist on the desk and screaming. He yells, "We can see.....anybody can see that it was PLAGIARISM!!!" He called the Trump guy a liar and then, a minute later, denied that he had called him a liar.

In other words, on national TV, the CNN anchor lied about calling the Trump guy a liar......and when the Trump guy started laughing at him he just looked totally confused and went to commercial.

One of the funniest TV interviews ever. That's what Trump does......he makes the Media look like fools......which is one reason everybody loves him.

All evidence make it clear she did, but... I do not believe she wrote it herself (just a gut feeling), and that it was actually written by some young staffer/speech writer who was too inexperienced and naive to know that somebody would notice.

Having said that, I do think it's worthy to be called out, but I also think it's silly to belabor it for days and weeks.
