Race . As in the native America's being targeted in ND.
GOP has been against AA programs .
And the modern day lynching is the unwavering support of bad cops shootings unarmed blacks in the streets .
There have not been this may Democrats boycotting an Inaugural

Indeed, when I moved to Virginia 1958, there were separate everythings for blacks/whites, no blacks allowed in certain places and the KKK and Nazis were just up the street from ours.
The commonwealth at the time was thoroughly Democrat.

Conservatives do not run cities because they cannot get elected on the Democrat plantations.
In my state, there is one city of approximately 1 million population. It is filled with minorities and liberals to the degree that the mayor and Congressional Representative are the only major Democrats in the state. Everywhere else in the state legislature, Republicans are the majority. The governor's mansion, and the other House seats, and both Senate seats are all Republicans.
The population barely keeps up due to the proliferation of minorities, illegal aliens, and the other "normal" people fleeing for the suburbs balancing out. This is similar to the "white flight" of the 1960s, except now they are fleeing liberals and their tax and spend governments, crime, and both refugees and illegal aliens inhabiting entire neighborhoods.

Overwhelmingly absurd is your tacit correlation between the quantity of people boycotting an inauguration and the effectiveness of the man thus installed as president. You must be positively balmy, man. Lincoln's election catalyzed the succession of the South, which in turn resulted in the Civil War and the grizzly death of more Americans than in any single conflict before or since. Lincoln managed to bellicosely hold the nation together, his election is also what caused the country to split apart to begin with.
That notwithstanding, you raise that inane similarity without having given any due consideration to the character of the two men. Lincoln was a man of find character; he would have literally vomited at the notion of a wretch like Trump coming within ten feet of the Lincoln bedroom, let alone being the master of the house. Of Lincoln's character has been written:
- J. T. Duryea of the U.S. Christian Commission, which met frequently with President Abraham Lincoln.
- "In temper he was Earnest, yet controlled, frank, yet sufficiently guarded, patient, yet energetic, forgiving, yet just to himself; generous yet firm. His conscience was the strongest element of his nature. His affections were tender & warm. His whole nature was simple and sincere – he was pure, and then was himself.”
- James A. Rawley, historian
- "The new community, with its merchants, professional men, artisans, and mostly Southern population, framed a new life for Lincoln. He played the roles of merchant, odd jobs man, student of grammar, reader of Shakespeare and Robert Burns, spinner of stories, and soldier."
- H. Donald Winker, historian; The Women in Lincoln's Life
- "Lincoln’s respect for New Salem women was demonstrated by his reaction when Charlie Reavis cursed around women shoppers. Lincoln demanded that Reavis desist, saying he would not tolerate such language in his store when ladies were present. When Reavis continued the vulgarity, Lincoln admonished him: ‘I have spoken to you a number of times about swearing in the presence of ladies, and you have not heeded. Now I am going to rub the lesson into you so that you will not forget again.’ Thereupon he seized Reavis by the arm and led him out of the store to the side of the street where there was a patch of smartweed. Throwing Reavis on his back and putting his foot on his chest, Lincoln grabbed a handful of the stinging weeds and rubbed Reavis’ face, mouth, and eyes with them until he yelled for mercy.”
- John Hay, "Reminiscences of the Civil War"
- "The evidence of all the men admitted to his intimacy is that he maintained, without the least effort or assumption, a singular dignity and reserve, in the midst of his easiest conversation,"
- Henry Clay Whitney, Life on the Eighth Circuit
- Mr. Lincoln was “every inch a gentleman – not in form, but in substance.”
- Allen Thorndike Rice in 1886 quoting DoJ official Titan J. Coffey in Reminiscences of Abraham Lincoln
- "One of Mr. Lincoln’s most amiable qualities was the patience and gentleness with which he would listen to people who thought they had wrongs to redress or claims to enforce."
- John Forney, Journalist
- “Many a fierce conflict took place in his presence between angry politicians, but it required a very strong provocation to overbalance his judgment or his equanimity. Not so, however, with an appeal for mercy; not so with a petition from the poor. Here he was as weak as woman, and more than once mingled his tears with the gentler sex.”
- James G. Randall, Lincoln’s American Dream: Clashing Political Perspectives
- “Lincoln’s broad tolerance was shown in his speech on temperance. He had nothing of the self-righteous unction so common among temperance reformers. Far from denouncing the drunkard he showed that in his own growing years intoxicating liquor was ‘a respectable article of manufacture and merchanidse.’…To berate habitual drunkards as utterly incorrigible was repugnant to his sense of human decency. He considered such an attitude ‘fiendishly selfish.'”
