This is going to get quite awkward on Thursday when Trump talks about the lessons he learned being raised while black in Chicago.

Chris is really defending this?
I would die.
Jesus, when even Jeffrey Lord, a spineless, soulless, mewling shitbag that probably masturbates to Trump with a tightened noose around his neck agrees that something is bad for Trump, YA DUN GOOFED.
This is all you need to watch:

No. Hes been harsh. He's just giving her the benefit of the doubt.

Costa is implying this is on Manaford
She's also got a house at the end of a rainbow and a magic genie with the soul of Robin Williams.
Trump on the other hand has a cursed monkey's paw that twists every wish made on it. He wanted to be the nominee and that's what the paw did.

"Hello?"
"Hello! This is...Cillary Hliton! Is this Melania Trump?"
"Why, yes. Yes it is!"
"Oh! My dear beautiful child! A disguised int--I mean, a little birdie, has told me that you're having problems writing your speech!"
"Unfortunately so. Finding good things to say at length about my husband is so difficult. What do I do..."
"My poor, sweet child. I can help you. Give me your fax number..."
Too many meta. Dial it back a few notches

Paul Manafort walked into a political battle with the experience of literally murdering political opponents and then was told that murdering political opponents is illegal.
You have to give him some slack, he's learning all of this new, so why not copy from the best?

How do people figure this out? How do you listen to Melania ramble for 20 minutes and go "oh my god, those last 20 seconds were from Michelle Obama's DNC speech from 8 years ago!!!"
Sounds like Manafort's out and Lewindowski's coming back in. It's all happening far faster than I assumed it would.
Reporters usually get an advanced copy of speeches so they can be ready to publish right after the speech. Usually it's good for everyone involved since coverage happens fast. If that's what it was.
This would be amazing and extra so if he ditched pence if it was manaforts pick lmao
One person kind of noticed it. Probably they were watching it recently or something.
Then he looked it up, realized it was direct plagiarism, tweeted it, and it went viral.
Wait really? Manafort's out?

Switching campaign managers in the middle of the convention if true. My God.
Or that. Could be either way really.
Not yet but give Trump 20 minutes. No way does Manafort keep his job if this was him.
Because there are people who do this for a living who've listened to those speeches numerous times.

No. We are just on a fever dream. But hey, candidate trump gets what candidate trump wants. No matter how insane it is.
First he leaks a vice presidential pick - what Corey was fired for suggesting as his only idea - and not only that, but he leaked the pick to force Donald into accepting a fool who will provide minimal benefits whilst enhancing Trump's weaknesses by adding some extra anti-LGBT bigotry and more general fuckery into the mess.
Then when Melania comes to him for help on her speech that she worked really hard on all by herself but that she was worried wasn't good enough, he steals a paragraph from Michelle Obama and inserts a Rick Roll into, then tells her that he'll keep his help a secret so she can claim to say she wrote it all on her own.
Hot take: Manafort is a saboteur inserted by Putin because he actually does want Hillary to win because they fear the tales of the legendary negotiator as written in Trump's totally self-written book, The Art of the Deal.

Costa mentioned that Trump has been focused on his wife's speech for days, was greatly looking forward to it and was also concerned with how the media would react to it. Needless to say he must be furious right now. Will be interesting to see what happens next, whether Manafort can control Trump, what does the campaign decide to say, etc. Do they trot out Melania to apologize? Do they blame it on a staffer?
What if they blame Manafort and oust him?

Actually a campaign manager would be one of the prime targets to go as they are in charge of staff. Along with speech writer.
Has happened in previous history when something similar happened.
This is almost unreal honestly for how damaging this will be in the end, no matter the outcome.

Not seeing anything about Manafort getting fired yet (though he surely will be if he did write this speech).
I would love to see the faces of some of the delegates who were passionately applauding Melania's speech when they find out they were applauding Michelle Obama's words. I assume it'll be similar to the look on my son's face when I tell him something he just ate had broccoli in it.
What god, and what animal did Hillary sacrifice to be this fucking lucky. Trump right now is the gift that keeps on giving. Instead of building on the last week the GOP just trip and fall over themselves. What should have been an easy bump, and time define the narrative turns into a clown fiesta. What amazing luck. I'm not into conspiracy theories, but now I'm starting to believe that Trump is a Clinton plant. One human being cannot be this lucky.

The normal rules of politics don't apply to Trump. Had he ripped off a part of the speech tomorrow that he was going to give. No one would give a shit and he would deflect and everyone would move on.
But we don't know if the same rules apply to his wife yet. We'll see. This is above any Gaffe Romney had like his binders full of women or 47% stuff.
