If plagiarism DID occur...it was committed by Mrs. Trump's speech writers against Mrs. Obama's 2008 speech writers. Quit making Mrs. Obama a "victim." It has also come to light, that the content of Mrs. Obama's 2008 speech was not entirely original, either:
"And Barack and I were raised with so many of the same values: that you work hard for what you want in life; that your word is your bond and 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." -- Michelle Obama, 2008
"... is based upon the application of certain basic truths: that integrity is all important, that your word is your bond, that if you owe a person money you pay him back, that you work hard, enjoy what you do and show a loyalty to those with whom you work and do business. He instilled in me simple, clear cut values and a will to succeed." --- author Rob Marsh, 1992

I wish you could see it. It's hysterical how Laura Benati wears a dress like Melania did and then proposes to give the same speech that Mrs. Trump did.
