Melania Trump has had a rough couple of days. After delivering what seemed to be a marvelously poised and polished speech at the 2016 Republican National Convention, she was ambushed by accusations that she lifted key phrases of her speech from one that First Lady Michelle Obama made at the 2008 Democratic National Convention. (She also apparently worked in a “RickRoll” during the speech, too.)
So far, Trump hasn’t been able to defend herself in her own words — unless you count her “appearance” last night on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert. Broadway powerhouse Laura Benanti debuted her polished Melania Trump impression and, guys, it’s pretty darn great.

1. I wondered who that was - she is brilliant!

Loved the 'model posing' bit.

2. Me too, I never heard of her. She very well may be auditioning for a spot on SNL. nt

3. 2016's Tina Fey!

And it must be noted that Tina Fey plagiarized Sarah Palin!

4. I thought Tina mimicked Sarah Palin.

Or, she plagiarized her without letting on that she was using someone else's words.

5. She did. That was a joke.

8. I guess this is my slow day, LOL! nt

6. my thoughts exactly

Lets hope though that she doesn't have to make a career of it. If Trump is not President, she becomes a distant memory! Hopefully!

7. Point taken, yuiyoshida.

Tina Faye made a pretty good living even though McCain didn't become president, thank goodness.
