Donald Trump’s inaugural speech plagiarised from Batman’s Bane? Twitterati think so

Promising to make amends, and stop “American carnage” right away, the new president said, “From this moment on, it’s going to be America First.”

No matter how the speech of the Republican leader has been, netizens were quick to claim that Trump ‘plagiarised Bane’ in his inaugural address. In fact, as soon as Trump concluded his speech, people started posting pictures of the D.C. comics villain along with the new POTUS.

In his first address as the president, Trump said, “For too long, a small group in our nation’s Capital has reaped the rewards of government while the people have borne the cost. Washington flourished – but the people did not share in its wealth.” People felt a striking resemblance to this connotation to that of the Batman villain’s speeches. Remember the famous dialogue by Bane — “We take Gotham from the corrupt! The rich! The oppressors of generations who have kept you down with myths of opportunity, and we give it back to you… the people. Gotham is yours. None shall interfere.” Yes, people could not overlook the obvious connection and soon, the trolling began.

And as far as the content of the speech is concerned, people are not very impressed with it and found ‘a concrete plan’ missing.
