Oh I certainly hope folks on this thread aren't under the impression that Melania stayed up nights writing a speech the way someone in high school would, trying to get their best friend elected student body president. If anyone thinks that then bless their heart!.
as bizarre as it sounds that may have ( partially ) been the case.
here's the breakdown that has been reported to date:
* jared kushner, trump's son-in-law,hires speechwriters matthew scully and john mcconnell in june to write a speech for melania's RNC appearance.
* melania is uncomfortable with the text and decides to re-write it seeking help from friend meredith mcivers who co-wrote 4 of donald trump's books.
* the final draft contains little of the original scully/mcconnell draft.
* it is unclear who, if anyone, in the trump campaign revues the final draft of the speech.
Some serious racist attitude on display in this post.
Racist? When he was ''white'' he was Barry in the white world he came from; when he became ''black'' for political and personal advancement he became Barack.
Don't know why that is racist but then again everything to you is ''racist''.
Nice facts. You get an A+ in your academic report card and a job at Walmarts.
This stuff they don't teach in college. This stuff you learn in life.
Thank you. I don't know what Walmarts might be, but I'm a healthcare administrator. If you meant the store Walmart, I'll pass.
Despite your amazing intellect, it might shock you that I not only went to college, I am also alive. I know you don't have any references, but going to college doesn't mean you don't also experience life and gain knowledge from it. College is simply a way to gain additional personal and professional knowledge; they don't kill you there.
The star of the Rep. convention will be the Trump kids. Independent voters see them and this reflects well on Trump. Even those at MSNBC spoke highly of Trump's son speech today.
If Trump stick on message (economy) and doesn't let his temper get the best of him at the debates he wins.
Trump was correct when he said the Clinton camp never wanted to face him. Jeb Bush? Ted Cruz? Forget it. Clinton would be up by 10.
Because despite all of his gaffs (particularly the one about the judge) and he's still neck and neck.
... and decides to re-write it seeking help from friend meredith mcivers
i'm seeing some headlines this morning saying "trump campaign blames mcivers for plagiarism" but so far there has been no official acknowledgement from the campaign that mccivers worked on the speech. the claims that she did have come from anonymous sources.

There is a statement from her. She is the designated plank walker. It doesn't really matter. The fact that this got past Trump's team and the abominable way that it was handled are the real story. They bumble again today by bringing it up once more. Now, it is back in the news again. Team Trump is a train wreck.
I just read that they threw someone under the bus.
