Lincoln was a corporate attorney who used jew tricks to win court cases. His time in the Illinois legislature was marked by parliamentary trickery akin to Schumer and Pelosi where one time, in an effort to deny a quorum for a vote, he jumped out of a window.
During his first run for POTUS, when directly asked about how he’d serve his (((corporate))) masters in northern manufacturing and banking, Lincoln, much the same as Biden today, would refuse to answer the question, well aware his response would alienate voters.
At Fort Sumter, Lincoln, like Wilson and FDR later, needing public support for his unconstitutional war, would fabricate a situation where he could force his enemy into appearing to be the aggressor, despite the opposite being true.
During his disgusting war where he sent whites to die so that he could maintain his empire and his (((corporate))) masters could keep their customers locked down with limited alternatives, in a move that would give Bill Gates a hard-on, he arrested newspaper editors in the north for questioning the official narrative of the war and asking who benefitted.
