Donald Trump

Melania's speech was done well....she had to be nervous as hell. She's not the spotlight seeker that Donald is.
Now the other side is saying she stole her speech from Michelle Obama. Really?
"My husband is an honest man. My husband will make a great president." What else is a wife to say.?

It looks like she did either copy or at least express similar sentiment as Michelle in 2008. Whether it rises to the level of plagiarism is debatable. The media focus on her speech seems to be more an attempt to deflect attention away from some of the other much better speeches than anything else.

There were way too many similarities to be considered coincidental.

You're just excited to have a "first gentleman". "C'mon Marry me, Bill, I got the wedding bell blues". How cute.
I stole those words from the Fifth Dimension, I think. Sue me!

I think royalties should be paid to Ms. Obama's speech writers. Seemed to be a lot of cut-and- pasting.

If you look at my he text from both, it was literally copied almost word for word.

Even some right wing slanted news outlets are saying it's too close to it.

Looks like her speech writer waited til the last minute, decided to use Cliff Notes and got caught.

Did anyone check to see if Michelles speech mirrors Mamie's or Jackie's or Betty's or Barbara's etc.??

No worries. I'm sure it will be copied by someone else and brought to market.

I'll go with the "similar sentiments" after all what wife is gonna stand there and say...."My husband's an ***hole and dishonest as hell" It would've been a nice warning from Michelle.

Just reporting how widespread the eyes watching were.

I'm sure Bob would be a good President. He could use "Hammer Time" for his campaign theme.

I am even more sure that you would be the worst First Lady ever.
