(21,860 posts)Can you imagine writing a novel in which a Presidential campaign claims that speech content was plagiarized from My Little Pony, rather than admit that it was plagiarized from an African-American woman and a Democrat?
It would be considered too far out to be published.

(36,437 posts)This is apart from the weird move of defending the plagiarism by claiming it was actually simply childish platitudes!
GOP: "Melania's speech was amazing! Awesome! It was from the heart! It's incredible! She knocked it out of the park!"
Everybody: "Well, this part is obviously plagiarized."
GOP: "The words are banal platitudes! Everybody says them. They're very common. They hardly have any meaning at all!"
What the fuck?
The Trump people are fucking clowns.
