There are so many people in Trump's campaign contradicting one another on the plagiarism thing.

I'm seeing Manafort accuse Hillary, top advisor Barry Bennett saying it was a mistake and they have to look into it, some RNC rep denying it happened at all, and Cory Lewandowski blaming Manafort.

The level of incompetence and lack of unity gets demonstrated over and over and over. That's the gift here.

1. When will Donald or Melania make a statement that actually addresses the issue? - n/t

[nolabear]

3. I'm trying to think what they'd say. They'd have to admit it happened. It gets complicated then.

I really don't know what will happen. But I can't wait to see.

9. The fact that Trump has yet to tweet speaks volumes

If he thought an opponent was doing this to him, he'd be tweeting 24/7 trashing the individual/organization.
No tweets from means to me that he KNOW this is an inside MAJOR Fuckup, so major they have Manafort out there lying his ass off telling us it never happened.
This is what pathological/serial liars do when they get caught.

2. How could it be Hillary's fault if Melania delivered the speech?

Did Hillary break into the cheetos headquarters and write the speech??? These people are such lying stupid jerks!

7. I KNOW! It just gets better and better!

Thank goodness for DU. I can let my schadenfreude run free.

6. Normally I'd expect Trump to take action

but there are still a few full days of RNC B.S. ahead and so many other gaffes to come. He may wait until all the bungling is over and then select an individual or two who can be sacrificed.

8. I looked over at FreeRepublic and

They are saying that 'Every first lady since 1910 has used the exact same paragraphs in convention speeches' or something to that effect.

This is great fun to watch

10. Of course they have. They used words. Melania used them bigly.
