From Newsweek:
IVANKA TRUMP PLAGIARIZES ONE OF HER OWN SPEECHES IN INDIA
http://www.newsweek.com/ivanka-trump...d-tokyo-725805
This is just so disappointing, she cannot even deny her plagiarism because she had the audacity to plagiarize herself, so of course she knew what she was doing.The city of Hyderabad had been anticipating White House senior adviser Ivanka Trump's speech at the Global Entrepreneurship Summit for months, banning the act of begging in the streets, rounding up the homeless and building a shopping center in preparation for the international envoy.
It may have seemed safe to assume the first daughter's speech writers were working overtime as well, preparing a robust keynote address that would showcase her appreciation of women entrepreneurs in India and their contributions to technology and the workplace.
While Trump did say a few lines crafted specifically for the event she was attending—"In this 'City of Pearls,' the greatest treasure is you!" she said, citing Hyderabad's monicker to an applauding audience—it appeared the breadth of her talking points were recycled from a previous speech she gave during a foreign trip earlier this month.

Bait threads are so low effort these days.
I'm very disappointed in you Venant. You shame your family and peers.

Why didn't you use the headline Newsweek used?

I love the "not" Trump supporters and their efforts to deflect from the failures of this administration.

Wow, you guys are sad. Grasping for strawmans to attack Trumps daughter.
That's low, even for you.

Point at the person doing that in this thread, other than the OP who is not posting this in good faith. Originally Posted by Soulslaver

You literally can not plagiarize your own work. That should of been a red flag right there, OP, that this article is neither worth the time nor effort to discuss. And yet, here I am. It's like a bug lantern, Trump and his walking talking birth defects.
9 out of 10 people agree that in a room full of 10 people one person will always disagree with the other 9.

They added this to the end of the article: Originally Posted by zenkai

I wonder what people think the real point of an article like this is.

It might be worth discussing that an organization like Newsweek is pushing this caliber of article. It isn't like this is from Joe Schmoe's personal blog or something. Originally Posted by King Candy
