I look at it this way: first of all; why did she write her own speech? that is highly unusual, but she said she did, ok? If so, she should have had someone check it for her. If she didn't write it she didn't tell the truth.
As for plagiarism, that might be stretching it a little. Didn't our VP do something similar only worse?


I would say, too much is being made out of nothing, but it might also show something about her personality and whether she is going to be the ideal first lady? I don't think this will make a difference to anyone when it comes to voting for President. Let's hope no one is that shallow!

Melania Trump IS not a porn star.(eyeroll)
Bill IS a Pervert.
Although Trump will never be president of the US,
I'm glad Hillary is being roasted on an open fire pit before she takes office.

You're right, I stand corrected. She is a porn model. Feel better?

I think you have the wrong comparison here. Melania is the trophy wife to be put on display.

My question is who would you prefer advise the president in the WH regarding foreign and domestic affairs and the economy? Bill Clinton or Ivanka Trump, her husband and Donny Jr.?

And anyone who believes that these inexperienced kids, who cannot manage a campaign, will be wonderful policy advisors are divorced from reality.

Hillary didn't even know what a "classified" document was as a SOS or that rules applied to her. I guess your post was made in humor.

Careful when spouting off about protecting daughters.
As I recall, President Clinton is not the man who openly mused about dating his were they not related.

As for the OP, my preference would be neither.

If he can't manage to not f-up the keynote address of HIS convention, which featured HIS wife, then how engaged do you think he'll be as President?

He has admitted his two main sources of worldly knowledge are the news (that the right bashes every day) and himself. If that is the truth, then we would need some confidence that he'd surround himself with a competent and qualified team. He can't even manage to make sure that the defining speech of his entire campaign is legit.

It's bad enough that she stole the speech... but this is the real problem....
Quite an amusing read, watching you and the other lefties grasping for straws in an attempt to make something out of nothing.
Out of a long speech there were two lines that shared some similarities, it's long since over with and forgotten as the non issue it was.
You would prefer a screeching, corrupt old witch who kills our military personnel and laughs it off and lies about it? Where are your principles?
Felony Clinton is totally corrupt in every way and you spend your time worrying about the possibility a couple of lines in a speech has some similarities. Amazing how the left thinks...

I do feel sorry for Melania and it's not only because of the speech. I feel sorry for her because she's married to a sociopath. She probably signed a one sided prenup that gives her nearly zilch if they divorce. She'd be afraid to leave him and lose custody of her child and is likely worried that he will dump her for a new trophy wife as he has done to his past 2 wives. She's trying hard to keep up with the other trophy wives - plastic surgery and trying to portray an image. He seems to respect his kids more than he respects his trophy wife. She's not from the US so she likely feels a bit out of place.

The only thing that scares me about Bill is him having all this free time to terrorize the interns!!!

Just kidding... maybe... lol

Bill helped pass the first gun law in the 90s... if he is back in office and not president, I guarantee he is going to use that experience to get something else passed.

Okay so Melania grabbed a few sentences from Michelle's speech and it is all over the news like if she had just admitted to being undercover for isis.

Melania makes one mistake and we have "speechgate" whereas Bill Clinton a known liar, cheater, womanizer and who knows what else since he pals around with a convicted pedophile on his private island gets zero negative press.

Has America forgotten how he told a bold faced lie to us all over the Monika scandal?
So America is flipping out over a scandal of words but they don't care about a sex scandal.

Who would you rather have as first lady/man Melania or Bill ?

Exactly, how asinine is this? And Hillary has proven to be as habitual a liar as Bill!

Porn is sexually explicit, so no, her photos do not constitute "porn". Research the terms "porn" and also "explicit". Geesh!

No, she is not a trophy wife. She has accomplishments on her own. Boy, jealous or what?

I prefer the POTUS be advised by his cabinet. I believe that is why they have them, isn't it? Also, it is said that Bill is suffering what appears to be Parkinson's or a Parkinson's like disease. I am aware of what that does to a person and such a person is not in a position to be giving advice to the POTUS. I have seen his lash out in ways that indicate he is losing it. Bill looks like the grim reaper is standing in his shadow.

So, who thinks it is insulting for the first female POTUS to be dependent on her husband?

Yeah, Bill is spent. I want Trump to depend on his cabinet and in military situations, he has said he will take advice from the Generals which works for me.

I think it is funny that some of the women think Bill is hot still. Must be from the sexual scandals. I think that is just disgusting. Seriously, some people really need to get a life.

That was just from the dirty minds of the Democrats having been exposed to so much sexual content coming out of the Clinton presidency. Their minds just go "there" automatically. I guess that explains some of the attraction. Yuck!

You bet, we'll I am afraid that isn't that impressive. Did you bet that your candidate didn't send classified emails over an unsecure server? See "betting" just doesn't get it.

Melania isn't married to the sociopath, Bill is. Trump never took custody away from the other mothers, so why would Melania fear that. Didn't you see the other women with money, they all get the plastic surgery, you can see the severe dips around their mouths. You know, Melania seems happy with her husband, much more so than the opposing Clinton marriage for convenience couple. They have married for over 10 years.
Sometimes people just watch too many soap operas and think that is "real" life.

Envy.
