A friend from college was caught plagiarizing. It was finals before he was scheduled to graduate. F for Final, F for the class.....he never graduated. It was a mass media communications course and he picked the wrong professor. I had the same guy for two classes. One of the smartest people I have ever met and his classes were ball breakers. I had Media and The Government and Public Relations with him.RedFromMI wrote: ↑Sat Aug 22, 2020 11:10 pmEven in the article, it points out that a specific anti-plagiarism program _passed_ his speech... (the "plagiarism" is basically one line of his speech!)
PB is grasping at straws, and the NY Post article is trying to sensationalize something quite routine/mundane about political speech.
There are sometimes just a few ways to get across the same idea.
I used to teach a Science and Religion class at my university, and made them do a term paper. If they chose something like cloning for their topic - their plagiarism score often was a bit elevated, as some of the scientific descriptions of stem cell types can only be said certain ways.

Dude. You can put a houseplant up against Trump when it comes to making nonsensical speeches, and the houseplant would win.
The Lincoln project has endless ammo to use on this point for the next several months. Please, by all means, make "speeches" a campaign issue.
Trump is better off making this race about just about anything other than "making sense when talking".
No one cares about plagiarism, or pretty much anything Biden says or does. Wake up. The votes are already decided. All that matters is how many people are driven to vote....and that, my friend is about hatred.
It's a heckuva lot easier to hate Trump than vanilla wafers Biden.
Democrat Riots in Denver last night! How many votes for Trump will that gain?
I saw a poll which suggests Trump is within the margin of error in New York State! Lol. Dems snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Biden saying he’ll close the economy is an ad Trump couldn’t have dreamt of on his best night.

Re: 2020 Elections - Desperate Don is Panicking
The more I follow what the left is doing, the more I suspect it is intentional...as I noted here on Friday. If you fast forward 1 year from now, and assume Trump wins b/c the left is promoting unsafe conditions as you are pointing out, this plays into a mass hysteria outcome when he wins...more fear porn on their part?..maybe. I bet in the coming weeks and months the news will escalate the "Can we afford to risk MORE civil unrest like we see in these major cities should Trump win" narrative. The media WILL play more of a role, you can bet on that.Peter Brown wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 8:28 ama fan wrote: ↑Sat Aug 22, 2020 8:48 pmFixed it for ya.Peter Brown wrote: ↑Sat Aug 22, 2020 7:59 pm Say what you will of the Donald, but the guy does his own speeches.

A fraudulent intent, however carefully concealed at the outset, will generally, in the end, betray itself.

They already are! The talking heads have begun the 'if trump wins there will be civil war' narrative; Stelter does it nightly now, in spite of the fact that it's Democrats doing the looting and rioting.
One of our fave lib Fanlax posters, Brook, keeps with the 'all violence in these cities is by disguised Proud Boys'...notwithstanding the fact that every looter and rioter caught has been an anarchist Dem (with a weirdly high percentage of transsexuals, which I don't begin to understand!).
By the way, one of the more heart-wrenching scenes last night was the immigrant family that owned the Quizno's in Denver that got shattered. Presumably this family would normally be inclined to vote for Democrats, but I'm guessing after last night, that bet is way off the table.

Pure conjecture on your part YA. We all know that sooner or later the far lefties will run out of bricks. They can't just use any old bricks. They have to be certified organic and made from free trade masons and hand delivered by union trucks. It gets complicated to be a left wing anarchist these days... so many rules.youthathletics wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 9:23 amThe more I follow what the left is doing, the more I suspect it is intentional...as I noted here on Friday.

Conflict of interest? APWU endorses Biden. Seems like hunting at a zoo type of behavior. More reason to scrub mail in ballots.

Here’s hoping that the postal workers file all the Republican ballots in the circular file and deliver all the Democratic ones on a timely basis.
That’ll teach Trump to mess with the post office.

Re: 2020 Elections - Desperate Don is Panicking
Easiest prediction ever?
The media will say ‘the RNC’s production is awful and the message dark’.
Watch.
Meanwhile all the DNC had to do was not audibly pass gas and the media would claim the event was “uplifting”. Mika told Jill Biden she “loved her”. Will Mika tell Melania the same?
Joe nor Kamala have made themselves available for any interview of substance. Their entire ‘convention’ was an attempt to avoid discussing democratic city violence.

Re: 2020 Elections - Desperate Don is Panicking
Pete, here’s my prediction.
The highlight of the Republican convention will be when Rudy is arrested in the middle of his speech.
Second place: Tiffany’s speech when she announces she is voting for Joe Biden.

“interviews OF SUBSTANCE”. It doesn’t count when your fluffer tosses softballs.
Even then Joe messed up! Told Muir he can’t wait to shut down the economy again! For a pandemic with a 99.6% and accelerating-up recovery rate. Small businesses and employees are so happy!
They can not afford to let Joe be interviewed by an adversarial interviewer. He’ll implode.
Re: 2020 Elections - Desperate Don is Panicking
Who do you want to interview him? Tucker Carlson?
Sorry, Tucker is inaccessible these days. Moved to the back woods of Maine so he only has to see white people all day.
Broadcasts now out of a converted outhouse or shed that formerly was used by the Unabomber.
Maybe if he were to come back to DC, Joe would sit down with him.
