DrHarleyboy, that's dumb. How about differences? Superficial similarities only don't make for any valid basis for any valid comparison of the two men.

Why Lincoln Was Called "Honest Abe"

by Noah Brook

In managing the country store, as in everything that he undertook for others, Lincoln did his very best. He was honest, civil, ready to do anything that should encourage customers to come to the place, full of pleasantries, patient, and alert.

On one occasion, finding late at night, when he counted over his cash, that he had taken a few cents from a customer more than was due, he closed the store, and walked a long distance to make good the deficiency. At another time, discovering on the scales in the morning a weight with which he had weighed out a package of tea for a woman the night before, he saw that he had given her too little for her money. He weighed out what was due, and carried it to her, much to the surprise of the woman, who had not known that she was short in the amount of her purchase.

Innumerable incidents of this sort are related of Lincoln, and we should not have space to tell of the alertness with which he sprang to protect defenseless women from insult, or feeble children from tyranny; for in the rude community in which he lived, the rights of the defenseless were not always respected as they should have been. There were bullies then, as now.

As for your theory theory there is no theory in this

"Yet another look at no scruple Trump .. sheesh, some here are totally new to me, and it's clear from Trump's trail of muck that Trump
has little prudent business acumen .. and that he would do about anything for a buck .. welcome again to by hook or by crook, Trump"

Give us any part of a Trump speech with a part of one of Honest Abe's which, with both in context, you see could have been made by the same man.

Your avoidance of the reality, that Trump is a cheap huckster, a serial cheat, and a ruthless
truthless bully boy who strategically utilizes violence to build his Trump brand, makes you delusional.

Or is it that you just don't care whether or not your president is a person who to become your leader basically lied and bullshitted you?
