eh, man, I mean johnson was a massive gently caress up and only like one president in the next 50 years had any real notion about doing something, so i don't think it's that far off base to imagine that if lincoln had lived that the post-civil war era might have turned out better

but like all counterfactuals, nearly impossible to do anything with seriously

it is very likely Lincoln's reconstruction would have been not too dissimilar from Johnson's on the outset, though obv lacking Johnson's blatant sympathy go slave owners

usually the unknown unknown would be if Lincoln kind of hastily got everything back to how it was before the war in an effort to move on or gone in some other direction as he can be interpreted as doing either

i think hillary just meant if best president in history hadn't been murdered world would be better place

fine in my utter bemusement i exaggerated and she did probably never learn anything different about reconstruction since the lost cause was the interpretation taught back then.

still a hilariously bad thing to say

Unless he was just doing it to spite the southern aristocrats Lincoln wasn't going to do jack poo poo for freed slaves in his second term. Much less anything that would have given them a leg up in his northern power base.

Lincoln probably would have just kept going on with what he done in all the already liberated states. have 10% of the population sign a loyalty pledge
