Off-topic Trump Plagiarism: After repeated campaign denials, Trump staffer
admits plagiarism
After endless denials from the Trump campaign and Trump surrogates --
including repeated claims that this was all a coincidence, just
"common language," and even a plot by Hillary Clinton -- a Trump
staffer has admitted "accidentally" stealing language from Michelle
Obama's 2008 convention speech, after Melania Trump ("A person she has
always liked is Michelle Obama") related them to her over the phone.

Whether or not one assumes this is a genuine apology or just a case of
"getting caught" -- the amateurishness displayed by the Trump campaign in
this whole cycle is extraordinary.
And where's the apology to Hillary? Don't hold your breath waiting for
one from a misogynistic sociopath like Trump.
