Melania Trump was the main speaker at the Republican National Convention on Monday, and Parts of Melania Trump's speech bear similarities to a similar speech given by Michelle Obama in August 25,2008. Two days ago Melania Trump's speech writer apologises for plagiarising Michelle Obama. 

Former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski said Tuesday that whoever is responsible for writing the should be fired."Whoever was the staff person who wrote this speech should be held accountable and should be fired,".Lewandowski told CNN's John Berman and Kate Bolduan. Lewandowski, who is a CNN contributor, was fired from the Trump campaign last month. Trump's presidential campaign doesn't plan to fire anybody or to take disciplinary action over the controversy surrounding Melania Trump's plagiarism of Michelle Obama.It's set off infighting and finger-pointing within Trump's campaign, and two sources told CNN that Donald Trump himself is furious about it.

Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus said at a Bloomberg Politics event Tuesday morning he'd "probably" fire whoever was responsible for including plagiarized quotes, though he added: "It all kinda depends on the circumstances and how these things are written."

Trump's aides chalked the controversy up to media bias and blamed Hillary Clinton's campaign -- even though the apparent plagiarism was discovered by a 31-year-old out-of-work independent journalist, Jarrett Hill sitting in a Starbucks in Los Angeles. Hill tweeted about the resemblance, and his tweet soon went viral. before Clinton's allies and Democrats even weighed in. 

The Trump campaign released a statement on the speech after the similarities were uncovered, but it did not mention the plagiarism charge.Who wrote the speech?Sources familiar with the campaign's handling of Melania Trump's speech identify top Manafort deputy Rick Gates as the person inside the campaign who oversaw the entire speech process for Melania Trump.Gates is denying he oversaw the process of putting together the speech.

Here is Melania Trump, on Monday:

"From a young age, my parents impressed on me the values that you work hard for what you want in life, that your word is your bond and you do what you say and keep your promise, that you treat people with respect. They taught and showed me values and morals in their daily lives. That is a lesson that I continue to pass along to our son," Trump said.

And we need to pass those lessons on to the many generations to follow. Because we want our children in this nation to know that the only limit to your achievements is the strength of your dreams and your willingness to work for them."

 And here is Michelle Obama, on August 25, 2008:

"And Barack and I were raised with so many of the same values: that you work hard for what you want in life; that your word is your bond and you do what you say you're going to do; that you treat people with dignity and respect, even if you don't know them, and even if you don't agree with them.

And Barack and I set out to build lives guided by these values, and to pass them on to the next generation. Because we want our children -- and all children in this nation -- to know that the only limit to the height of your achievements is the reach of your dreams and your willingness to work for them."

 Meanwhile, the Clinton's campaign on Tuesday focused instead on bashing Republicans for other speeches Monday night, including the mother of a Benghazi attack victim saying she'd like to see Clinton imprisoned and the crowd chanting at another point, "Lock her up!" In a fundraising email to supporters, Clinton's campaign said "there's a difference between drawing a contrast and ceaselessly saying your opponent belongs in jail."

White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest told reporters Tuesday that President Barack Obama did not watch Monday night's speeches."As it relates to Mrs. Trump's speech, I'll let all of you weigh in on all of that and try to learn more about how exactly it was written," Earnest said. "What I can say that in 2008, when Mrs. Obama spoke, she received an enthusiastic reception and strong reviews because of her words, her life story, and the values that she and her husband deeply believe in and try to instill in their kids."

Earlier in the day, Melania Trump told NBC's Matt Lauer: "I read once over it, that's all, because I wrote it ... with (as) little help as possible."
