Melania Trump borrowed from Michelle Obama for her speech at the Republican convention where her husband was nominated for president. To defend him against charges of sexual harassment and groping, she had a different source: Hillary Clinton.

She’s parroting the arguments Clinton used decades ago to defend her own cheating and lying spouse.

“I believe my husband,” Melania Trump told Anderson Cooper this week when she finally broke her silence on Donald’s notorious 2005 conversation with Billy Bush and the growing number of women who have publicly accused Trump of harassment or assault.

Trump’s accusers are telling “lies,” Melania said, and the media, of course, are part of the problem. “I didn’t expect media would be so dishonest and so mean. I didn’t expect that,” she said. “Also for me, from the beginning, I never had one correct story — one honest story.”

But there is something more sinister going on. “This was all organized from the opposition,” she explained. “Did they ever check the background of these women?”
