#AbrahamLincoln's Gettysburg Address, keystone of American rhetoric


In historic Gettysburg, Lincoln spoke of unity; Trump complained of a ‘totally rigged’ system
washingtonpost.com - Jenna Johnson and Jose A. DelReal October 22

GETTYSBURG, Pa. — Donald Trump traveled Saturday to the site of the bloodiest battle of the Civil War, where he suggested that the United States is nearly as divided now as it was then. But instead of laying out his vision for uniting the country, as President Abraham Lincoln once did here, Trump declared that the system is rigged against him, that election results cannot be trusted, that Hillary Clinton should have been barred from running for president, that the media is “corrupt” and that he will sue all of the women who have accused him of sexual assault. .............


Journalists Mock Trump’s "Grievanceburg Address" At Gettysburg
mediamatters.org/ ››› October 22, 2016 ››› OLIVER WILLIS & ALEX KAPLAN

Journalists mocked Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s October 22 speech in Gettysburg, PA, which his campaign had said would outline his first 100 days in office if elected president and had compared to President Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address. Reporters said the speech was more “like the Grievanceburg Address,” “a personal revenge tour,” and was full of “conspiracy theories & racial animus.”

Wash. Post: Trump Attacks Clinton, Media, Sexual Assault Accusers In Speech. Trump in his speech, rather than “laying out his vision for uniting the country,” “declared that the system is rigged against him, that election results cannot be trusted, that Hillary Clinton should have been barred from running for president, that the media is ‘corrupt’ and that he will sue all of the women who have accused him of sexual assault,” ...........


Jonathan Allen @jonallendc
So far this speech is Trump blaming everyone else for his impending defeat. So, it is what he'll be doing for the first 100 days.


Laura Bassett @LEBassett
So Trump's first 100 days would basically be a personal revenge tour against the women who accused him of assault, the media and Mexico?


Jose A. DelReal @jdelreal
Trump's Gettysburg address so far:
1) Promises to lock up Clinton
2) Calls media corrupt over critical stories
3) Misstates voter fraud


Ben Jacobs @Bencjacobs
"Every woman lied when they came forward to hurt my campaign" Lincoln in Gettysburg or Trump in Gettysburg?


Alltime66
I've never heard a candidate make a speech where he says he will be suing 10 women who accused him of sexual assault
But then I've also never heard a candidate admit to sexual assault in a pussy grabbing video


So there's a freeper poll on Twitter, Who gave a better speech, Lincoln or Trump? They are rigging it, voting up Trump!
Is that what's going on Nov. 28, they're going to hold an election on Twitter to make sure it wasn't rigged on Nov. 8?
