No one is saying she did.  The fact that there are portions though that are VERBATIM what Michelle said is what the issue at hand is.  There are probably 3,000 ways to say "respect each other and value the opinions of those around you" and instead of picking any of the 2,999 other options she picked the one that was already done.

As to your point about the majority of the news being liberal I would disagree.  For every major news network that is pro-Clinton there is another that is pro-Republican (though not necessarily Trump).  Your local news might sway one way or another depending on where you are, but largely if you want to get an unbiased look at something you can if you try hard enough.

My point is that someone can't plagiarize something that is commonly used in speeches or in conversations. 

In the US, the vast majority of the media is liberal and most of them don't hide it. If you don't believe me, I'm fine with that. 

plagiarism is a big deal, Funny I see the same damn argument on Fox news that you are using, No one gets away with stealing others works in the public eye. Usually this is met with fierce action.

People saying "it's just common phrases" made me shake my head in disbelief.
The composition of the sentences makes it obvious that this is not an accident.

Exactly!

On my way to work this morning the radio moderators annonced that she had released a apology.

She said:

I never meant to cause you any sorrow
I never meant to cause you any pain
I only wanted to one time to see you laughing
I only wanted to see you
Laughing in the purple rain



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

Or which is worst a canidate who is known for decieving people to line his pockets time and again

Please, do not try to act as if Trump is does not have enough if not more dirt to his credit.  If anything the article I posted shows that what his wife did is very much not uncommon from what Trump himself has done with his own businesses.  So what is worst ,someone who lies about some emails or someone who has deceived people out of there money time and again, who has lied countless times to take money out of hard working people pockets to line his own.  Who own books show a history of deception to gain any advantage to make a deal.  I am not even trying to advocate Clinton but it kills me people are trying to make Trump look like the lesser of the 2 as if he is some saint or does not have a history of lying as well.

While you can look at Clinton tax documents and see where her money comes from, you are still waiting on Trump to release his which he wil not because the people who support him do not care.  They are more willing to believe how he makes his money instead of knowing.

I'm sure that no one thinks trump is a saint or says that he is but many people do think he's the lesser of two evils or that he actually what the US needs. I'm willing to debate with ya via pm if ya like but the amount of replies I'm getting from this thread keeps bringing back here when I want to move on. Explaining my points over and over to several users just feels like I'm repeating myself. 

I would totally like to understand why you believe someone with absolutly no political experience is what the US needs.  I certainly would love to know what qualities that Trump has that make him a viable President.  The crazy part is, I doubt that Trump would even hire himself as President with such low qualifiations.  We can easily have this debate over PM as I do have an open mind but I will warn you, that I have did my extensive research into Trump the business man and there is absolutly nothing I have seen from him that says he knows anything about the private sector.



A more accurate description would be "Melania Trump's speech writer plagiarizes Michelle Obama's speech writer"

Except that the speechwriter who has come forward apparently has no digital footprint from any time before 2 days ago.  So it appears as though the Trump camp may have created a fake human to take the blame for it.
