Monday’s Republican convention opened with Donald Trump’s wife Melania’s passionate speech, in which she plagiarized from First Lady Michelle Obama‘s 2008 convention speech.
After 24 hours of confusion and the campaign’s resistance to admit to plagiarism , it seems America finally has an answer from the Trump campaign confirming it was plagiarism and that a close friend might be responsible.
The New York Times reports Trump’s son-in-law commissioned the speech from speechwriters Matthew Scully and John McConnell. But Ms. Trump rejected almost all of of it, and asked family friend Meredith McIver to help write her speech. McIver is a former ballet dancer and English major, and it is unclear how much she influenced the speech.
