Did Melania Trump plagiarise Michelle Obama in her Republican Convention 2016 speech?
The demonstrators from Minnesota won’t be around for any more rallies or marches in Cleveland this week.
By midday, hundreds of anti-Trump activists had flooded Cleveland’s Public Square with chants and banners condemning the presumptive nominee.
Making the vote a drawn-out process instead of a foregone conclusion could have reflected negatively on Trump’s goals of unifying the party as prime time TV coverage of the convention began.
Despite the disagreement, Crawford said, “we are still a unified party, we will still unite behind the candidate, we will still unite behind Mr. Trump”.
Disaffected delegates were still pressing for a way to derail Trump. “You have the coercion”.
Donald Trump is supposed to be a consummate showman, so I figured the Republican convention he put together would, whatever its other flaws, be interesting.
Gordon Humphrey, a New Hampshire delegate and man who has been working with the Delegates Unbound and Free the Delegates, told The Huffington Post, “Donald Trump is so ignorant of anything that he hasn’t a clue what is going on here in general or in detail”.
The businessman said that Pence “made decisions different than I would have made” many years ago. “We’re here to be delegates not rubber stamps”, said Regina Thomson a delegate from Colorado.
Aiming to cast Trump in a positive light, the Chippendale dancer said the businessman-turned-presidential hopeful favors unity and securing the USA borders, which Sabato noted is “the government’s job”. The Never Trump PAC, a group coordinating the effort, placed ME among nine delegations whose majority supported the roll call. “Most of the Republicans who aren’t coming are people who have been part of the past”.
During the group picture, Valentine turned his back on the camera. “I’m not going to smile for the stupid picture”, he said. Trump children Tiffany and Donald Jr. plan to speak, as does Ryan and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, whom Trump passed over as a choice for running mate.
“I doubt Melania meant to plagiariase FLOTUS, but her speechwriter has some explaining to do”, he said on Twitter. “Why should I even come to the convention? He’s but one vote”, Winbush said.
“They certainly have ignited people and you see that”. A statement on the Trump campaign website Tuesday called the speech “a success”. Trump’s family is playing a starring role, beginning Monday with an evening speech by his wife, Melania Trump, who has kept a low profile throughout the campaign.
Oh, they wanted a test vote. A string of speakers then recited familiar conservative credos and lambasted their Democratic nemesis Hillary Clinton.
In short, instead of taking a formal vote on this year’s RNC rules, the delegates shouted “Aye” or “Nay”, and it was left to Deputy Chair Steve Womack (R-AK) to call the victor.
