Spokesperson says 'every word' of Melania Trump's convention address will be her own

A spokesperson for first lady Melania Trump said Tuesday that “every word” in her speech to the Republican National Convention would be her own. Stephanie Grisham, the first lady’s spokesperson:
“I think that it’s been very, very clear that over the last three and a half years, Mrs. Trump has done nothing but learn and grow in this role and she’s been doing a fantastic job at that,” Grisham said on MSNBC. “We have been working really hard the last three weeks. I can tell you that every word in the speech is from her. It’s very authentic and it’s going to come from the heart.”

Grisham said that the speech would be one of Melania Trump’s longer addresses that she has given as first lady and described the remarks as “positive and uplifting.”
The remarks will touch on her “Be Best” anti-bullying initiative, Grisham said. “I would say it’s very forward-looking. She definitely lays out some of the things she wants to do with Be Best in the next four years”.

The first lady is slated to deliver the keynote address during the second evening of the Republican National Convention on Tuesday. She will speak from the White House Rose Garden. President Trump, Vice President Pence and second lady Karen Pence are scheduled to attend the speech. Trump campaign communications director Tim Murtaugh told reporters that the first lady's outdoor address would have a "small audience".

Melania Trump came under fire in 2016 after delivering her convention address in Cleveland, Ohio, when it became clear that one of the passages from the speech bore striking resemblance to a section of Michelle Obama’s 2008 Democratic National Convention address. An employee of the Trump Organization ultimately acknowledged that phrases of Michelle Obama’s speech had been included in the final draft, but said it was accidental.

1. It's pretty pathetic--and telling--that somebody even has to say that.

2. Remarkable achievement. Give her a medal for "Greatest First Lady Ever"

3. That Was Implied In 2016

Then, not so much!
They made a big deal about the upcoming speech, mentioning the fact she was a resident on a "genius" visa.
Then the speech was plagiarised. The genius had to steal.
So, just because they specifically say it this time, we're supposed to accept it?
I think not.

4. I think she will do well

She's a lot of experience 'performing' in front of cameras.

9. Yes but we expect her to wear clothes, not sure she is comfortable that way

5. So I guess she won't be plagiarizing Michelle Obama this year.

Like her psychotic husband, the first nude will read something someone wrote for her. Any 5th grader would do a better job.

6. Her excuse: Actually, I said my speech before Michelle Obama said it. I just

didn't deliver it in public before her.

[Cha]

7. It says a lot that worst lady's speech has to be Framed That Way.

[onethatcares]

8. at least

she's "grown into this role".

Will she speak of chain migration for her parents? Askin' for a friend.

10. an even better reason to turn it off

Thanks for the heads up

[struggle4progress]

11. "Beeb est! Beeb ester! Beeb estest!"

[Mr. Ected]

12. Will there be sentences and punctuation too?

Will the order of the words be similar to the way the rest of us speak the language, or not like so?

13. "Be Best!" "I don't care. Do you?" Hvala Doviđenja
