Donald Trump, Jr. Delivers Recycled Speech Line at RNC
Donald Trump Jr. speaks on the second day of the 2016 Republican National Convention at Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio, July 19.

Trump’s eldest son delivered the speech at the convention the day after his stepmother Melania Trump ran into trouble, when phrases from her keynote address were found to be almost identical to a speech given by Michelle Obama to the 2008 Democratic convention. Now, it looks like her stepson Donald Trump Jr. might have plagiarized his speech too.
“Hillary Clinton is a risk Americans can’t afford to take”, the eldest son of Republican U.S. presidential nominee Donald Trump said.
One night after Melania Trump delivered speech lines almost identical to Michelle Obama’s, Donald Trump, Jr. appeared to recycle one penned months earlier by his convention-night speechwriter.
There was lots of finger-pointing over Melania Trump’s convention address, as Donald Trump Jr. blamed the writers for including passages that copied a Michelle Obama speech almost verbatim.
“I was one of the principal speechwriters. So there’s not a plagiarism issue”.
Buckley did not immediately respond to a question about whether Trump Jr. knew about the recycled lines.

“Our schools used to be an elevator to the middle class”. The passages in both Trump’s speech and Buckley’s writing compare American schools to Soviet-era department stores run for the benefit of the clerks, not the customers. Part of the fault for this may be laid at the feet of the system’s entrenched interests: the teachers’ unions and the higher-education professoriate.
