You know Lincoln told the supreme court to fuck off right? Was he "dictator" was it the end of democracy? Were people like you reading bathroom scrawling and screeching about project 1862?
That was a completely different situation ENTIRELY. Lincoln's Republican party resembles nothing of what the GOP is.
There was also a civil war under Lincoln. Additionally, last time I checked Lincoln also wasn't trying to overthrow the entire government and replace it with a theocracy. He was trying to abolish slavery. Reducing the country's authoritarianism is kinda the opposite of what Trump & Co. are trying to achieve.
That is such a poor comparison that I'm seriously wondering if you're trolling. If so, 4/10, you got me respond but your comparison is so poor that it left me questioning whether or not it was genuine.
