Abe Said

Abe Lincoln is highly respected by most people in this country. He was a country boy that became President and faced perhaps the greatest challenge America has ever faced. It cost him his life. Of course everyone knows or should know that Lincoln was killed by an actor - a self important radical that wanted his way. Sound familiar?

Honest Abe is often quoted, and I want to share three because they seem appropriate right now.

"America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

"You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today."

"I do the very best I know how-the very best I can; and I mean to keep doing so until the end. If the end brings me out all right, what is said against me won't amount to anything. If the end brings me out wrong, ten angels swearing I was right would make no difference."

I would never compare Trump to Lincoln, but I do wonder if he has similar thoughts.
