Abraham Lincoln was removed from the ballot in 10 States in the 1860 election.
When that failed, and a civil war which resulted in 1.5 million dead or Injured failed - they took the next step after he was reelected - and murdered him, while he was trying to enjoy a rare night out with his wife.
This iconic picture of Trump looking at Lincoln's painting was taken years ago.
Not by accident, but as a warning as to what will come.
