Stephen Colbert explains why Trump actually isn't like President Lincoln
On Sunday night Fox News interview Trump standing in front of the Lincoln Memorial. Trump pointed at the statue of President Lincoln and said, "I am greeted with a hostile press, the likes of which no president has ever seen. The closest would be that gentleman right up there. They always said Lincoln, nobody got treated worse than Lincoln. I believe I am treated worse. (Worse than being assassinated? Trump is a strange person.)
Broadcasting from his living room, Stephen Colbert dedicated 10 minutes to his show talking about the Fox interview, and explaining why Trump actually isn't like President Lincoln. For one thing, Colbert said, Lincoln's admirers followers did not wave confederate flags.
