A few hours before President Trump was slated to address the nation in his first State of the Union Address, the White House released a series of excerpts from Trump's prepared speech. But one of the catchiest slogans was actually coined by none other that Hillary Clinton. Whoops!
SEE ALSO:Why I, a politics nerd, will never watch a Trump State of the UnionRemembering accusations that First Lady Melania Trump plagiarized a speech by former First Lady Michelle Obama at the Republican National Convention in 2016, people poured over Trump's excerpts to find any possible lifted material.
What immediately stood out was the declaration of a "new American moment," a phrase which Hillary Clinton used during her Senate confirmation hearing in January 2009 when she was appointed Secretary of State by then President Barack Obama.

"No matter how daunting our challenges may be, I have a steadfast faith in our country and our people, and I am proud to be an American at the dawning of this new American moment," Clinton said at the time towards the end of her speech.
Clinton also used the phrase in 2010 during a speech on foreign policy, as reported by the Washington Post.
According to the White House, Trump is slated to say, "This is our New American Moment. There has never been a better time to start living the American dream." The context of that excerpt is unclear, though it does come after another excerpt on tax cuts, which were recently passed in December, and are touted as a major victory by the Trump administration.
