1. Oh FFS...

Just when you think they can't get any more absurd. This is not a reality show, this is the Presidency!

G. O. T. V.

2. LMAO

[Sanity Claws]

3. I couldn't make this stuff up!

Can you imagine writing a novel in which a Presidential campaign claims that speech content was plagiarized from My Little Pony, rather than admit that it was plagiarized from an African-American woman and a Democrat?
It would be considered too far out to be published.

4. It's the Twilight Zone. Utterly surreal.

Using Queen was bad enough but LEAVE MY LITTLE PONY OUT OF IT.

9. It's only July and this campaign season is off the charts in absurdity.

There are still almost four months remaining for things to become even stranger.

11. Cleveland is in deep trouble ...

RNC stupidity has achieved criticality.

12. The weirdest part about it is that the part supposedly plagiarized is not even close

This is apart from the weird move of defending the plagiarism by claiming it was actually simply childish platitudes!

GOP: "Melania's speech was amazing! Awesome! It was from the heart! It's incredible! She knocked it out of the park!"
Everybody: "Well, this part is obviously plagiarized."
GOP: "The words are banal platitudes! Everybody says them. They're very common. They hardly have any meaning at all!"

What the fuck?

The Trump people are fucking clowns.

13. New theory: This entire campaign is driven by a series of "gentlemen's bets", like Trading Places

In some oak-paneled clubroom, two elderly men are saying "I bet you a bottle of '67 port you can't get CNN to write about My Little Pony in their political coverage today!".

14. Well, now we need to have Tara Strong read the speech...

...in her Twilight Sparkle voice.

15. Michelle Obama gave her speech in 2008.

MLP began this series in 2010.
