Honest Abe's Republican Party of Lincoln represented decency, morality, kindness, sensitivity, compassion, honesty, and empathy.

We cannot defeat an enemy without fully learning his identity. The disappointment, sadness, fear, or hate some people may be currently experiencing are not enemies. Righteous anger may be the best tool we can have at our disposal to overcome those other feelings if we exert anger mindfully.
Our real enemy, I believe, has been our inability to accept our present-day existential reality —whether all of us can survive as a free nation— and, as a result of that knowledge, to fully trust ourselves in order to effect real, extraordinary change.
Packing #SCOTUS has become a Washington power struggle that will continue for years. It was the most partisan confirmation vote for a Supreme Court justice in modern American history and the first time since 1869 that justice was confirmed without a single vote from the opposing party.

A Last hurrah a politician's final campaign. and final TV attempt, at a long competition, performance, success, or their last hurrah.
The POTUS posse may have loved him during the first debate but now, he seemed sour, flattened, deflated, and all but defeated.
Although he may not be happy with that old fat guy in The White House, who has been naughty and nor very nice to #WeThePeople these past years, Santa Claus is still a portly, jolly, white-bearded man with spectacles and wearing a red coat with white fur collar and cuffs, white-fur-cuffed red trousers, red hat with white fur, and black leather belt and boots and carrying a bag full of gifts for children.
POTUS is in BIGLY trouble but some journalists aren’t overtly covering his desperation. The Donald rails against the press because of what he says is unfair media coverage.
His 20K lies and innumerable attacks against his adversaries are finally catching up to him as political karma, which is a bitch. This is a man who uses The Bible as a prop and rarely goes to church.
