Princess of Tap Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Donald Trump's third wife wanted to impress the Republican convention crowd, so she copied native-born Chicago American First Lady Michelle Obama's convention speech. You got to say Melania was trying to make a good impression. I guess she is one immigrant that Donald Trump thinks should stay in the United States. Is it constitutional for the president's wife, the First Lady to be born in a foreign country? It just sounds un- American to me. I think we should get Supreme Court Justice Ginsburg to rule on this one. I wonder what Marla Maples thinks? I want to put her up as the candidate for first lady because she's the only wife of Donald Trump who was born in the United States. She was born in the peachy state of Georgia, not in the Ukraine but in the Good Old South. Let's have an American first lady candidate with Trump. Marla--all the way! What do you think?

ElCid Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 If Trump and his people can't get a speech correct, how can they run the country? They can't. Melania stated in an interview prior to the speech that she wrote it with a "little help." Time for Trump to fire her. Of course it also shows why the Obamas should have a third term and apparently the Trumps believe that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cathy or Kenton Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I got suspicious when Melania started talking about growing up in Chicago and what schools should serve for lunch. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bogie56 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Maybe she should be suspended from being a potential first lady "until we can figure out what the hell is going on." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sepiatone Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I have no problem with foreign born first ladies. I didn't hear the speech as I didn't see any of the convention coverage( my TOILET needed scrubbing, and I found THAT task preferrable), so I can't speak to any of the plagarism charges. But I WOULD prefer that ANY First lady, foreign born or "home-grown" be someone OTHER than a "trophy wife". Sepiatone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think? Good Night and Good Luck The "natural born citizen" controversy is a Constitutional debate. The Constitution sets down requirements for presidents not their wives. Issue may never be resolve to everyone's satisfaction - side effect of the "Living document" interpretation. Historical trivia, Louisa Addams, wife of John Addams was the first and only First Lady born outside of the United States. She was born in London, Great Britain.

Dargo Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Who said the first lady has to be the President's wife? Let Trump select a first lady the same way he selects a Vice Presidential running mate Yeah! But of course it would also be preferable for the ultimate First Lady selectee's name to begin with the letter "P". And so then they COULD legitimately use that first and now discarded campaign logo here and without any further bad press... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bogie56 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 The New York Times reports that while Melanie may have copied Michelle Obama's speech, at least she wore a different dress.

We know not seems. Nay, it is. I am STUNNED !!! What mastermind had THAT idea? Who thought, even for a minute, they this would go unnoticed? They couldn't come up with any of these brilliant speech writers to write something for her. Obviously, she didn't know she was parroting. The whole Trump candidacy is now a laughing stock if it wasn't before. Whose got the crook to yank them off the stage. I'm having a hard time believing this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GIPPER Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Melania Trump may have delighted the convention delegates in her Serbian designer dress but she cant' compare, in my opinion to Nancy Reagan--- and Nancy (who always wore name brand designers) never plagiarized anybody in her speeches.

LawrenceA Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Trump Campaign Says Hillary Clinton Is Behind Melania’s Plagiarism Controversy When in doubt, accuse Hillary Clinton of being a malign and omnipotent force from which all human suffering does emanate. “There was no cribbing from Michelle Obama’s speech,” Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort told CNN’s New Day. “These were common words and values, that she cares about her family and things like that. She was speaking in front of 35 million people last night. She knew that. To think she would be cribbing Michelle Obama’s words is crazy. This is, once again, an example of how when a woman threatens Hillary Clinton, how she seeks out to demean her and take her down."
