Melania Trump is a liar like her husband, objectively

"Melania Trump is a plagiarizer, which Republicans suddenly don’t think is a terrible thing anymore. But aside from pretending to have lived Michele Obama’s childhood, there were other clues proving that yes, Melania shares the same … let’s call them “values” … as her husband. First there was the pretense that she had written the speech herself. Asked if she was nervous about delivering it, she said: I read it once over, and that's all because I wrote it with as little help as possible. Now anyone that has ever delivered a major speech knows that writing it yourself doesn’t negate having to review it again, and again, and again. Look at the speeches on the podium of many orators and you’ll see printed paper scribbled with edits and cross outs. So right off the bat we knew she was full of sh*t, because the entire Trump clan is full of sh*t, but little did we know that Trump’s very own campaign would call her a liar less than 24 hours later: [[Manafort] told ABC News’ “Good Morning America”:] "In writing her beautiful speech, Melania's team of writers took notes on her life’s inspirations, and in some instances included fragments that reflected her own thinking.” So from “I wrote it” to “Melania’s team of writers"."
