Somone has finally come forward aboutl Melania Trump's speech that closely resembeled Michelle Obama's 2008 Democratic National Convention speech. Meredith McIver, an in-house staff writer for the Trump camp, took the blame and admitted she had worked with Melania for her opening-night convention speech.
Staffer Meredith McIver also wrote an apology letter to express regret for the mistake she made and even stated to submit a resignation letter. The resignation letter, however, was rejected by the Trump family and she said, "Mr. Trump told me that people make innocent mistakes and that we learn and grow from these experiences."
Donald Trump's tweet also supports the statement, "The media is spending more time doing a forensic analysis of Melania's speech than the FBI spent on Hilary's emails."
Some passages in Michelle Obama's speech in 2008 include, "Barack and I were raised with so many of the same values: like, you work hard for what you want in life, that your word is your bond, that you do what you say you're going to do, that you treat people with dignity and respect, even if you don't know them and even if you don't agree with them."
Whereas Melania's speech goes, "From a young age, my parents impressed on me the values that you work hard for what you want in life, that your word is your bond and you do what you say and keep your promise, that you treat people with respect. They taught and showed me values and morals in their daily life."
Mclver claims that she wrote down some of the passages of the first lady after Melania admitted she wanted to give the same kind of message. She also admitted the mistake she made by not checking Mrs. Obama's speeches and apologized for the confusion she might have caused.
