President Trump says Lincoln's Gettysburg address was "excoriated by the fake news. They had fake news then."

"I have a feeling that's going to happen with us"

1. How can an opinion (however stupid) be fake?

Trump is an idiot.

2. Lincoln Was Shot Dead..

...Unreal This Fuck Right Here.

3. Now he thinks he's Lincoln....

Trump's self aggrandizing knows no bounds

4. How dare Trump compare himself to Lincoln??

Again, Trump is making up bogus history. At Gettysburg, there was a well-known orator who gave a long speech, about two hours, and he was followed by Lincoln. Later the orator said that Lincoln managed to say in five minutes what he himself could not say in two hours.

I don't remember the exact quote, maybe someone can find it?

6. Edward Everett:

Everett's oration was followed by the now far more famous Gettysburg Address of President Lincoln. For his part, Everett was deeply impressed by the concise speech and wrote to Lincoln noting "I should be glad if I could flatter myself that I came as near to the central idea of the occasion, in two hours, as you did in two minutes."[96

5. Abraham Lincoln would have slapped this snivelling fart bag silly.

And Jefferson Davis would have joined in.

8. Don't forget Mary Todd Lincoln. She would have had zero use for this creep.

9. Mary Todd would rip his Cheeto off

Heck, I bet even old John Wilkes Booth would have chosen to assassinate Rump over Lincoln. But since Rump never goes to plays, Booth would have had to shoot Rump while he was watching Teletubbies' special Faux Nooze edition.

7. I'm impressed he could pronounce the word

I wonder if he knows what it means.
