MSNBC: Trump Campaign Identifies Writer Behind Melania’s Speech

Donald Trump campaign’s in-house staff writer Meredith McIver has taken the blame for Melania Trump’s 2016 speech controversy

"'Yesterday I offered my resignation Mr. Trump and the Trump family. They've rejected it. Mr. Trump told me that people make innocent mistakes and that we learn and grow from these experiences. I asked to put out this statement because I did not like seeing the way this was distracting from Mr. Trump’s historic campaign from president and Melania’s beautiful message and presentation. 

I apologize for the confusion and hysteria my mistake has caused. Today, more than ever, I am honored to work for such a great family. I personally admire the way Mr. Trump has handled this situation and I am grateful for his understanding. Signed Meredith McIver.'"
