Looks like a Trump staffer admitted to plagiarizing Michelle Obama's speech and offered to resign.
While Trump doubled down on the lies as usual and refused to man up and take responsibility...
Manafort told Cuomo that it’s time to “move on” from the Melania speech controversy and focus on the nominee’s campaign.
“But I can’t move on, because you keep lying about it, so I can’t move on from it,” Cuomo shot back. “Because I have to talk about what is true.”
Manafort replied, “Chris, I’m not lying about anything.”
Cuomo continued to press the campaign manager, asking him to give a “yes or no” answer to whether or not Melania Trump plagiarized the first lady’s speech.
But Manafort didn’t waiver from his initial argument: “As far as we’re concerned, there are similar words that were used, we’ve said that, but the feelings of those words and the commonality of those words do not create a situation which we feel we have to agree with you.”
