Plagiarizin’ Melania

While watching her speech last night, before knowing its source, it already didn’t seem right. My 12 y.o. sister pointed out that working hard for your dreams wasn’t necessarily something parents taught their kids in communist countries. Further, we all wondered what hard work she had ever done to achieve success. Being born beautiful? Marrying a rich guy? If you’re going to plagiarize a speech, at least find one that is related to your situation.

Melania took credit for this speech, so she is either a liar or a plagiarizer. Which one is it? nt eastwestdem Jul 2016 #4
