Trump speech-writer takes responsibility for Melania plagiarism

A speech-writer with Donald Trump's campaign says she's offered to resign after plagiarizing quotes from Michelle Obama and using them in Melania Trump's speech at the Republican Convention on Monday night.

Meredith McIver says she made a "terrible" mistake, but that Donald Trump has forgiven her.
