[brooklynite]

Per NBC: Sources in the Trump campaign say Matthew Scully, former GWB speechwriter wrote first draft of speech, and none of the cribbed language was included.

2. Channeling Agatha Christie!

3. Did Somebody Pull a Ron Burgundy?

That'd be quite a zany tale if that's what happened.

WARNING! NSFW...

4. Can't believe anything, but as before it seems

most likely Trump himself or Melania "personalized" it a bit and the staff failed to check it over.

5. Melania and Donald knew about the ole switcheroo of the speeches...This was by design.

It was an attempt to draw the media away from something, I don't know what though.

8. Yes. We should be paying attention to what the other hand is doing. It

seems like mission accomplished in the twitterers and on DU where it is hard to find a thread that is not about Melania. The whole thing seems off. I am waiting for the Stay Puff Marshmallow man to appear.

9. Perhaps from the speaker who said "Trump was from God"?

Seriously. It was a man whose son was supposedly killed by an undocumented immigrant.

6. This has the John's fingerprints all over it.

John Miller and John Barron.

7. Hmm, this leak means staff doesn't know who the perp is... So CYA time!
