We all know that Melania Trump delivered a speech that was plagiarized from one delivered by Michelle Obama in 2008. It has been in the news for days now. But today Donald Trump found a scapegoat. He says a staffer admitted that she had written the speech using some lines from Melania without vetting the sources. Tonight on ABC News, Donald was spinning this story to David Muir and George Stephanopolous. They listened politely, and their faces reflected that they bought the whole story. But should they have? After all, these two highly paid newsmen, these two supposed top professionals are charged with getting the truth. But they both stood by impotently unwilling to question Donald Trump further when they both should have known that the question that still remained
despite this supposed ghost author was one that were duty-bound to ask and did not, "Why did Melania say that she wrote it?" Were they afraid of calling Trump's wife a liar?
