Inteet explodes over similarities between Melania Trump's speech and Michelle Obama's - CNET

Tens of thousands of retweets later, the suggestion grew that Melania Trump or her speechwriter had lifted a chunk of a Michelle Obama speech from 2008.

Soon, YouTube mashups began to appear, mashups that suggested there had been something of a mess-up.

The Trump campaign didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.

However, here are the passages for your delectation. They do seem to enjoy a certain monozygotic nature.

Melania Trump:

My parents impressed on me the values: that you work hard for what you want in life. That your word is your bond and you do what you say and keep your promise. That you treat people with respect. They taught me to show the values and morals in my daily life. That is the lesson that I continue to pass along to our son.

And we need to pass those lessons on to the many generations to follow. [Cheering] Because we want our children in this nation to know that the only limit to your achievements is the strength of your dreams and your willingness to work for them.

And now Michelle Obama, 2008:

And Barack and I were raised with so many of the same values: that you work hard for what you want in life; that your word is your bond and you do what you say you're going to do; that you treat people with dignity and respect, even if you don't know them, and even if you don't agree with them.

And Barack and I set out to build lives guided by these values, and pass them on to the next generation. Because we want our children -- and all children in this nation -- to know that the only limit to the height of your achievements is the reach of your dreams and your willingness to work for them.

For those, though, who are truly into the inteet and its memes, there was another moment from Melania Trump's speech that might move some.

She appears to have been Rickrolled by her own speechwriter, unless we believe that -- as she told NBC's Matt Lauer -- she wrote the speech "with a little help as possible."
