An Astrophysicist Used Math To Show Melania Trump Stole Her Speech
Thereās a 1 in 87 billion chance Melania didnāt rip off Michelle, a McGill scientist says.
Since Melania Trump got caught red-handed at the
Republican National Convention Monday night
appropriating passages from a speech Michelle Obama delivered in 2008,
Donald Trumpās team has engaged in a breathtaking effort
to gaslight America.
Paul Manafort and others from the presumptive
Republican presidential nomineeās campaign have even
attempted to argue that itās simply a coincidence, and that both women used ācommonā words.
McGill University astrophysicist
Robert Rutledge is having none of it.
In a series of posts to
Twitter and Facebook, Rutledge ran the numbers, breaking down the disputed passages into distinct phrases of a few words each ā āword is your bond,ā ābecause we want our children,ā āwillingness to work for themā and so on. Based on this analysis, he determined thereās something like a 1 in 87 billion chance that Melania Trump and
Michelle Obama would use such similar language.
On Facebook, Rutledge puts it like this:

Well, that pretty much sums it up. Melania clearly plagiarized Michelle Obama's speech.
