    They didn't just both say "work hard and succeed." That section was literally taken word for word from Michelle's speech; just play the speeches next to each other. I'm not that bothered, though. It's just pretty funny.

    Guys, in order to plagiarize something you first have to know about it. Does anyone here really believe Melania remembers anything the Mooch said 8 years ago? The only thing I can remember her saying is it was the first time she's ever been proud of this country.

    Lincoln wanted to send all the slaves back to Africa. Liberia was even set up for it.

    There wasn't enough money to do it after the Civil War.

    I wonder what liberals and the media would have done with no racial unrest to stir up?

    What would Obama have done without it?

    Oh, wait, nevermind.

    Are you implying that mooochelle can compete with a super model?

    Possibly. He doesn't appear to me to have much depth of field.

    She simply read a speech she was given. She was probably nervous as hell, although she was well poised and composed.

    I'm sure the speechwriter has been fired.

    The only thing I've learned out of this that remotely matters, is Hillary Clinton, a presidential candidate, plagerised her speeches.

    And, of course, the media didn't care.

    But, now we all know about it. :)

    So let me get this straight. There was a terrorist attack in Nice, France where a jihadists ran children over with a truck....let me repeat that: a terrorist RAN OVER CHILDREN WITH A TRUCK. Once again, A TERRORIST RAN OVER CHILDREN WITH A TRUCK.......and Democrats are outraged because Melania Trump gave a speech with a few similar phrases as Michelle Obama....

    Let's you know where their priorities are.....

    All the racial unrest started with conservatives and they are still making excuses for it today.

    Yea your right, because Republicans really care about what is happening in Nice, France. They care so much they cancelled their convention to send aid there.

    No folks like Jefferson Davis.

    That's the best you got.

    When you put it that way it's really ... disgusting.

    I need a stronger word, but that will have to do.

    Liberals should be ashamed.

    Jefferson Davis is no different than England wanting to leave the EU.

    Except that England could leave, without a war.

    John Brown was a murderer. And he was hung, exactly as he deserved to be.

    49 pages in less than a day. The Right definitely cares. This was a huge boo boo.

    Her speech was about positive things, and her husband, and that would have been no place for it.

    What has Michelle Obama said about Nice? She's the actual First Lady (or whatever) at the moment.

    Making liberals look foolish =/= caring.

    Some deal with manufactured scandals, and others deal with the truth in telling.
