Trump More Popular than Lincoln

In response to the anti-Trump protests anticipated in London, Trump decided to toot his horn with this statement:

Trump mentioned a poll claiming that he was the "most popular person in the history of the Republican Party. Beating Lincoln."

"I beat out Honest Abe," Trump added. "But the people of the UK, and I'll bet if you had an honest poll, I'd be very strong. They want the same thing I want. I love the U.K."

It is unclear what poll Trump meant.

I assume from now on that the Republican Party will henceforth be known as the Party of Trump.

I love that balloon. I would fly it at home. That's how much I love it.

There's a graph in the below-linked article showing historical ratings broken down by party:

Probably the Sean Hannity poll.

I've long suspected Drumpf had a thing for Hannity's poll. Or maybe it's the other way around.

Regardless, I've heard about their pillow talk.

Trump is more popular than Lincoln among Republicans ever since they became the party of Jeff Davis. That started 50 years ago thanks to Tricky Dick.
