I have to admit, I don't think I ever expected to see fanart of Twilight Sparkle at the top of CNN's front page. Yet here we are, in 2016, and it's happening.
I'm not going to dive too deep into the politics here, but a brief summary should get you all caught up on what is currently exploding just about everywhere. During yesterday's Republican National Convention, Donald Trump's current wife, Melania, hosted a speech for her fellow party-goers. Unfortunately, it looks like whoever wrote said speech decided to pull a section of it pretty much 1 to 1 from Michelle Obama's speech a few years ago.
In the strangest twist of fate out there, the RNC Communications Director hopped in during an interview citing a quote from Twilight Sparkle to show that similarities in speeches happen all the time. You can't make this stuff up.
The story is currently making waves over on Twitter, and as I mentioned above, on the top of major news publications around the world. Is the world ready for a Princess Twilight to take over?
Thanks to Jeffrey, Twilight, Dreamland, and the swarms of others that sent it!
