I saw a tweet this morning along the lines of "Well, it's no Benghazi."

Well that's true. Even Benghazi was no Benghazi.

Is anyone else wondering if Melania's plagiarism last night was a cry for help on her part or possibly an attempt at sabotage by the election staff? My brain is going there because I can't imagine hat no one thought we would notice.

It occurred to me, that the speechwriters might have done it deliberately to draw attention away from all the other, more serious to the future of the country, shit that went on last night. Because it's a thing that can be easily fact-checked and of course the "liberal media" would be all over plagiarism. That's like dangling a catnip mouse in front of a cat.

Leave it to the liberal media to make a headline about a few similar words. Just shows you that they are in bed with Obama and Hillary and their anti-American agenda.

I've seen several commenters saying exactly that. This isn't going to change anyone's mind. Which is why it's a safe little scandal to distract from the racism and grief exploitation and utter lies of the rest of the speeches.

Oh, good, Sam Bee was new last night too.

It is hard for me to believe that the Trump side wanted the entire discussion this morning to be about plagiarism. With a side of confusion about Donald calling in for an interview during Benghazi Mom's speech. It is all more entertaining than I expected. Can't wait for tonight, but think I will wait for the Colbert version.

I watched Criminal Minds on Netflix last night. Serial killers seemed like a more palatable option than the RNC speakers. For one thing, on the show the serial killers eventually get caught and punished.

OMG, in Salt Lake and I slept like utter crap last night. Not even 2 hours into the work day and I feel like I desperately need a nap. I'm terrified of nodding off during a meeting today. My "narcalepsy" (in quotes cause it is undiagnosed as yet) has been at bay lately, but today, not so much.

Yeah, I don't really think so either. I had a conspiracy-theory moment, and then I realized no one's really reporting on the racist sexist hate from the RNC even without the plagiarism. They don't have to distract from what's being ignored anyway.

Why the heck did he do that. No, I think he just decided to do it and did it, without any thought for anything else going on. Not to take away from how awful he is, but he really does act like he has dementia or something.

No, I think he just decided to do it and did it, without any thought for anything else going on.

The Donald's playbook in a nutshell.

I am raising an eyebrow at reporters focusing on Melania's speech considering all the really disturbing stuff going on at the RNC. It's like blaming a parrot for using salty language while the pirate captain is boarding your ship!
