Great idea, but don't add Trump, replace Lincoln with him. Lincoln was the worst president ever.
Slavery was on the way out anyway, we didn't need to lose 800,000 men and destroy the country to do it.
Everybody in both the North and South hated him for it while the war was going on.

@Cliff-Mashburn saidSo the war was Lincoln's fault and not the fault of the people opposing the abolition of slavery?

So who exactly bombarded Ford Sumter?

This is perhaps the dumbest thing I have ever read here.
Not bad, though, for someone turned from southern-plantation-owning-democrat to CSA-promoting-racist-carpetbagger-Republican.
Hmmmm, I guess actually not that different at all. Just the name.

Enslaving all races is a superior form of exploitation than enslaving only one race.
@Metal-Brain said"(3) The Confederate States may acquire new territory; and Congress shall have power to legislate and provide governments for the inhabitants of all territory belonging to the Confederate States, lying without the limits of the several Sates; and may permit them, at such times, and in such manner as it may by law provide, to form States to be admitted into the Confederacy. In all such territory the institution of negro slavery, as it now exists in the Confederate States, shall be recognized and protected be Congress and by the Territorial government; and the inhabitants of the several Confederate States and Territories shall have the right to take to such Territory any slaves lawfully held by them in any of the States or Territories of the Confederate States."
Economic slavery was on the way in. That is why.

Enslaving all races is a superior form of exploitation than enslaving only one race. Forced racial slavery was simply outdated in the north, but the south didn't have the industrial capacity the north did, so the agricultural south clinged onto racial slavery.
The industrial revolution ended racial slavery with the help of central banks to implement economic slavery. Slavery is still legal in the USA in some states though. Who do you think are fighting the CA forest fires? The same people Kamala didn't want to let out of prison so they could be slaves.
AL, OR, TN and VT banned slavery in those states only 3 years ago. That is because convicted criminals are easy to exploit. Few people care outside of prison.
