      Dan McLaughlin Retweeted Matt Walsh

      All true - Lincoln was even known to tell "darky" jokes in public, complete with dialect - but also incontestibly true that Lincoln's career & even his strategic pandering to racist voter sentiment resulted in immeasurable improvement of the lives of black Americans.https://twitter.com/MattWalshBlog/status/1151120979348852736 …

      Abraham Lincoln said that black people are inferior to white people, explicitly opposed legal and social equality of the races, and advocated sending them back to Africa. But yeah I guess Trump's tweets are way more racist than that. https://twitter.com/thehill/status/1151084310058823680 …

      Also, while Lincoln could be both racially insensitive & pandering on the stump, Frederick Douglass & other black leaders of the day who met with him personally found him to be entirely without racial prejudice in how he treated his fellow Americans.

      Under today's 'woke' ethos, of course, we could have zero tolerance for a politician like Lincoln who always balanced meeting the voters where they were - even frankly racist voters - & working to make the world better according to his principles.

          And our society is all the weaker and less robust because of that 'woke' ethos.

          Lincoln was the better choice among the candidates. You’re arguing for allowing racism among Republicans.

          The language-hijackers/desecrators of progressive renown would underhandedly posit that a canine 𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐥 is an insignificant-nomenclature-remove from a 𝐥𝐞𝐠... and proceed to claim that the dog had 𝐟𝐢𝐯𝐞 legs. Lincoln would have none of that.
