...is no more.

Can you imagine what Lincoln would think of todays so called Republican Party? The party of Trump and MAGA? And, of course, the MAGAs would hate Lincoln... if they understood him.

Lincoln consistently likened the minoritarian efforts of the South to a mob, as it employed threats, intimidation, blackmail, political chicanery, voter fraud, and violence to coerce the majority into giving way to ever more unreasonable demands.

Sound familiar? Just substitute "MAGA" for "South".

Lincoln called it 'mobocracy'. A fitting description of the MAGAs.

Trump is as oafish and inarticulate as Lincoln was intelligent and articulate. What has happened to our conservative brethren!?
