Ivanka Trump, the president’s daughter and also his adviser, visited India to attend the Global Entrepreneurship Summit that launched in Hyderabad on November 28.
Newsweek magazine reported that Ivanka apparently used some bits from her earlier speech while making an address during the summit, but for some reason described it as 'plagiarizing' on Twitter.

The Newsweek article itself however is now titled 'Ivanka Trump Recycles One of Her Own Speeches in India.'
Fair to criticize a speech on substance.

But this criticism doesn't make sense. https://t.co/ntqEQ5HuP8
I find the concept of "plagiarizing" one's own work to be a ridiculous charge. I call it intellectual consistency. More people should try it, rather than flip-flopping ideas every week as the wind blows. https://t.co/4gqzyeYD45

Who among us hasn't plagiarized themselves? https://t.co/wwh0Hg7sZn
