I guess one or two people see it that way.
BTW, If there was a barf smiley I would use it.
It is comments like this that make Melania copying Michelle Obama all the more rich. People that have attacked Michelle Obama for eight years, then rave about Melania's speech while she was using the words of...Michelle Obama.

I've said the same phrases for years - perhaps Michelle Obama & Melania Trump plagiarized ME.

Funny.
I give you both credit for completely ignoring the context within which the phrases were used as well as their order in each paragraph, which, as has been clearly shown, was EXACTLY the same.
Too many posters have provided the exact quotes for me to waste time doing so again.
The only explanation for this sort of cognitive dissonance is willful ignorance.
AGreed! I mean, Donald stole "Make America Great Again" from the Reagan Campaign, you would think his "crack" campaign team could at least have ripped off Nancy Reagan or even Laura Bush!
I agree. Then it would have been easier to explain the copy as 'reverent repetition' of a repub icon, no harm, no foul, but noooooo, they have to double down on the lie. SMH
I knew they were coming, but I didn't think it would be this soon...
And that is why Trump married her. She would have been better off being exactly what everyone thinks of her. One can only wonder what role Trump has in mind for her in his administration.

This will go in history as one of the most embarrassing moments on presidential conventions.
I do not feel sorry for them. Trump has been the sleaziest of sleazes when it comes to President Obama and if he can't avoid using Michelle Obama's speeches because google is so hard, that is completely on him. I would hope the rest of his kids run their "original speeches" through a plagiarism tool though.

So Melania used some words that were similar to words used by Michelle in 2008.
And now your acting like Melania copied the whole speech word for word.
Tell me how many politicians have used the words of others during their speeches?
It's already been brought up in this thread.
Empty statement, yours is.
This is such a small thing politics wise.
It's like you anti-Trumpers would throw out 10 pounds of rice because you found a small pebble in the bag.

Also, she became a permanent resident of the United States in 2001 and a citizen in 2006.
She is also a true AMERICAN beauty.
Why do you care so intensely? Michelle Obama is a beautiful, stylish, classy, well-educated, American-born First Lady. The fashion world LOVES Michelle Obama. She has been on the cover of Vogue twice.
You people are so transparent with your real issue with having Michelle Obama as the First Lady. Have a seat, sir.
