2016 USA Presidential election thread I: The warm-up

[Aerin]

Those are pretty damn close haha

[Vaspinne]

It's all over Twitter. Comparison videos galore too lol

[kisada]

oh no that meme LOL

[Tyrath]

Apparently the speech also had this



Wondering now if the writer was intentionally trolling the Trumps

[Meian]

Pretty sure I'd get a failing grade for the course if I plagiarized that much... Going to love to see how they defend this.

[Galkaeater]

even the original is pretty much boilerplate

Whoever wrote it probably just watched a bunch of speeches given by candidates' wives at past conventions and got a bit too liberal with the "borrowing."

Yeah, this more than likely what it is. Also reeks of very last minute chop shop cobbling together of Trump's RNC convention. I mean if people were paying attention to Scott Baio's short interview after the night on CNN they would have heard him literally mention that he was asked only last week to speak at the convention.

You best believe the team of people who wrote this is going to be into some hot trouble. Regardless, we all know Trump is going to have a "whatever" moment and steam roll right through it.

It'll be interesting to hear from Paul Manafort on this matter later this day.

The Trumps are ignoring it apparently; they released some dumb response

After the last few months it really just seems like Trump plans this stuff out on purpose to get free press coverage.

Is there legitimately a rick roll written into her speech? Between that and plagiarizing Michelle, I honestly think it's a combination of trolling and getting free, easy publicity.

[Sho]

Trump really has the perfect cover for all of his bullshit as well including this -- that of the "liberal media" trying to make it a larger story than what it really is.

We can 100% expect this to be the fall back, and GOP supporters and constituents be completely OK with it.

[kuronosan]

He really should have ran for president.

With that said, he has since lost his marbles, and is no longer the same America's Mayor that we all grew up with post 9/11.

Yes he is, we've just realized how much most of 9/11 has moved on from it so it's easier to hear the people that were rabid over it.

I'd rather have Dan Aykroyd as president.

He was never America's Mayor. New Yorkers always and still to this day hate Giulani. "Fuck Giulani" was a popular catch phrase for a reason. Then he had the balls to run for president with his entire campaign being based on "Noun verb 9/11." Fuck that dude and fuck anybody who thinks otherwise.

This.

I'll be honest, I thought people liked Giuliani.

I mean, at the very least he didn't eat his pizza with a fork and knife.

[Day]

we were just talking about this last night - Hilary may be a lot more shady than Obama or Bernie, but bitch will get shit done.

come to think of it, Trump probably will too. this should be an interesting four years either way.

no, nothing will get done. it never does. unless it benefits them in some way maybe.
