Being critical of Lincoln is like being critical of the flag and conservatives don't stand for that. With that said, the modern GOP is the party of the Confederacy and really should disavow Lincoln.

More right wing propaganda about the left.

In the 1920s the Italian Fascists described their ideology as right-wing in the political program, The Doctrine of Fascism, stating:"We are free to believe that this is the century of authority, a century tending to the 'right,' a fascist century"

Mussolini - THE DOCTRINE OF FASCISM

Opposed to liberalism, Marxism/Communism and anarchism, fascism is placed on the far-right within the left–right spectrum.

Republicans are just the attack dogs for the real threat to the US.

Nice try, but nothing is more unAmerican than ACCUSING SOMEONE of colluding with a foreign country to destroy our democracy,WITHOUT A SINGLE PIECE OF EVIDENCE TO BACK IT UP and then screaming "guilty of treason, impeach him". BEFORE AN INVESTIGATION even stats AND NOW OVER 2 YEARS LATER still not one piece of evidence to support the claim.
