Trump's motto is stolen from Reagan.

While I think this as a "controversy" is relatively stupid. If this was a college essay said student would be in serious ****. I don't see how anyone can deny this as plagiarism.

Will trump do that, who knows? Firing someone means admitting his campaign made a mistake, something he has not done too often if at all
Big picture this is not a big deal outside of a cycle of bad press
Actually they should spin this and make Mrs Trump a sympathetic victim. That wouldn't be too hard imo
There are plenty of programs, and I'm sure a couple available online or even free online that could have detected it. it's not just the speechwriter but whoever okayed the final version.

You don't even need a program. Copy and paste on google and it will pop up if it is the same or very similar.

Contrived controversy? Come on they had an okay night of speeches but a darn good prime time speech by the potential first lady. That would have been all that was talked about tomorrow morning. Instead they shot themselves in the foot! They blew it big time. They better have a much better Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
because you root for the other team ...

Everybody (Rs & Ds) should stay worried. If you don't you may well lose when you could have won. But I don't think that this convention is going to provide a big bump. I doubt next week does either. Keeping America safe was suppose to be tonight's theme but it will overshadowed by this self-inflicted wound. Most people didn't watch CNN, Fox or MSNBC coverage all night long. They either tuned in when the networks picked up coverage at 10pm or not at all.

So funny the deniers. This is going to be mocked for weeks. Some bodies head should roll. Someone is going to get fired in the board room. This is worse than the Trump steaks rollout. Maybe even worse than the Trump Vodka. Total #shytshow

RE: Melania Trump plagiarized Michelle Obama's 2012 speech
Honest to goodness. You almost think he's tha Manchurian candidate. The deepest political op in our life times. He's trying to throw it. He's blasting the popular Ohio Gov John Kasich on msnbc and his wife Cliff Noted her speech. They are throwing the whole thing. He doesn't want it. The most amateur roll out of a modern political party's nomination in decades.

RE: Melania Trump plagiarized Michelle Obama's 2012 speech
Let's break this down.
Rick Wilson:
1/ Let's break this down. There are three big picture problems for Trump with the Melania speech story.
2/ The biggest problem is the lack of management, process, staffing, oversight. You can't beat HRC's machine with ad-hoc Trump run-and-gun.
3/ Second, she said she wrote the speech w "as little help as possible." The Lauer interview was comfy, but an unknown trap.
4/ The speech came from someone. They won't be able to deny it for long. That person then becomes the story for four hours or so tomorrow.
5/ Day One themes: amateur thugs wreck up everything they touch.

You won't win a campaign on just Hillary's emails and Benghazi and the vast majority of you are counting on that. Someone needs to wake up all right. You won't this Trump guy holding the nuclear football? #clowncarisgoingtorunoutofgassoon

I think you are missing the point. It isn't that the speech fiasco is going to move the needle to the Ds. It is that a great opportunity for Trump to move the needle was wasted with this fiasco.
