How the speeches compare

In a section, Mrs Trump said: "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."

Mrs Obama's speech in 2008 carried the lines: "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."

Mrs Trump's speech continued: "[My parents] 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, 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."

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


tbh I think this was done on purpose to get people talking about her

[-:Undertaker:-]

Not hard to plagiarize the meaningless waffle that comes from Michelle Obama's mouth.

The current First Lady and prospective seem to have zero class. Gone are the days of Nancy Reagan, Betty Ford and Laura Bush.

regardless of the 'meaningless waffle' she says in the video, she pretty much copies it word for word :P her having zero class hasn't got anything to do with it

Blatant publicity stunt, she has zero charisma.

I love Michelle Obama as First Lady, she has plenty of class. She's a real people's person, down to earth and not some stuck up bitch. Looking forward to her carpool karaoke with James Corden tomorrow :)
