This presidential election is definitely one for the books. With the Republican National Convention behind us many are still in awe that Melania Trump had the audacity to take parts of Michelle’s 2008 Democratic National Convention speech and didn’t think anyone would notice. Little did Trump know, laid off journalist, @JarrettHill, was on to her the moment she started saying “the only limit to your achievements is the strength of your dreams …”
Hill was in a local Starbucks in LA when all of this started to unfold, and was the first to document the similarities between Trump & Obama’s speech. He admitted that it was something he couldn’t let go unnoticed.
“The more I sat with it the more I knew I had to say something, he said”
Hill took to Twitter to call Trump out and he didn’t hold back!
“Melania must’ve liked Michelle Obama’s 2008 Convention speech, since she plagiarized it,” he tweeted.
After watching a YouTube speech Obama made a couple years back, he realized that Trump just didn’t plagiarize one sentence, she stole a whole freakin paragraph!
“CORRECTION: Melania stole a whole graph from Michelle’s speech,” Hill tweeted, providing a link for his followers to view the video he used to compare the two speeches.
Within minutes Jarrett noticed his tweet was being retweeted at a fast pace and immediately packed up his belongings and went home.
“I felt in my body that something was happening and I didn’t know what to do”, he said. “I had no idea that it would get this big”
His tweet was retweeted over 6,000 times and even reached the desk of many top news outlets from MSNBC to BBC.
Now with all this publicity you would think that offers would be flying out the door for Hill since what he did ultimately will go down in history, but he admitted that’s not the case just yet but I’m sure within weeks the offers will start rolling in.
It’s been a crazy week for Hill but he admits he “still would have done it” regardless!
