Plagiarism seems to run in Trump circles. At least we recall Melania cribbing from a speech previously given by Michelle Obama and now we find out today that Trump War Room is running an attack ad with the same title as one the Lincoln Project put together a few years back. What’s the message here? When you lack intellect and imagination, go steal the work product of people who have those qualities.
Here’s the original Lincoln Project “Mourning In America,” on the top, with the Trump redo on the bottom. As you may recall, this ad infuriated Donald Trump at the time, to the glee of one and all, particularly the folks at LP.
Nice try.

What would we do without transgender people and drag queens to demonize? I wonder.
Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery.
