    It’s amazing…

    All they had to say is: “she shouldn’t have done that, but it’s not disqualifying for me,” but they can’t even do that.

    You just plagiarized ...

    "Sounds like"
    "LOL"
    "NYT's (sic) said"

    ... from past posts I've made. I say those things all the time.

    Once again there is a difference between failing to properly attribute very minor passages and passing the original work of another writer as one's own. Apparently you cannot comprehend the distinction.

    Looks to be done in a way to conceal itself from plagiarism finders. That's an extra wrinkle to this I hadn't noticed before. Change a word here or there. Makes me think this is probably not the only time she has ripped off somebody else's work.

    Is this confirmed yet? I see where her team met with Rogan's people, but has the invite been officially accepted? Trump has all but confirmed publicly that he's going to be on Rogan's podcast.

    It is very common to have thoughts in a paper that came from elsewhere and didn't get noted.

    As to your own papers--if the professor had read them for any reason--you could be cited for plagiarism in a strict academic institution.

    I'm just having a laugh at the guy behind this, and you for being so invested in what he says, for claiming things like the word "but" -- yes, just the single instance of the word "but" in a sentence -- as being plagiarized.

    You know how you guys don't care about:

    26 women who have come forward to accuse trumph of sexual assault
    Being adjudicated of sexual assault
    The attempt to overthrow a fair and free election
    Inciting a riot on the capital
    34 felonies
    Stealing classified files and hiding them from the government
    Katie Johnson
    Project 2025 and Agenda 47
    Bragging on tape about sexually assaulting women
    40 of his 44 cabinet not endorsing him
    Longtime republicans endorsing his dem opponent
    He won't release his medical records
    He wont' debate anymore
    He's canceling interviews
    And more:
    The Life & Crimes of Donald Trump - TrumpFile.org

    We don't care about the constant posting by you with lame stories that are supposed to be your hopeful "October surprise".

    Sorry, not sorry.

    And not one single criminal case brought for it. What does that tell you?

    He's been indicted on several of the illegal actions I listed. The rest are just facts. I provided a link to more. But just move along, nothing to see here. :rolleyes:

    Not on the payroll of Harris just paraphrasing the words of an expert on the subject of plagiarism who is more knowledgeable than either one of us and once again trying to pass the work of another as one's own is a form of plagiarism the would constitute both legal and academic fraud. Not so with the inadvertent omission of attribution of minor passages in a large work.
    For the third time:

    Quick question, what are this "expert's" political leanings? I'm gonna take a wild guess and say the person is a Dem.

    He was convicted of 34 felonies and is indicted on the other law breaking acts listed. Last I checked, a felony is a criminal act. Better?

    No, sorry. I asked about this specific line item in your post:
    Very serious allegations, no doubt. 26 of them, as you said. Yet he was never charged with a crime for any of them. What does that tell you?
