Did Melania Trump copy Michelle Obama's speech?

In her prime time speech at the Republican National Convention, Donald Trump's wife Melania has been accused of plagiarising a portion of Michelle Obama’s 2008 Convention speech.

Lucia Hodgeson, a freelance speechwriter says, there is ‘definitely a chance that they [Melania Trump] knew that there are similarities there and that they would get picked up by the media’.

Plagiarising Mrs Obama's speech may be a 'great card played by Melania', says Lucia.
