"You know when Abraham Lincoln made the Gettysburg Address speech, great speech, you know it was ridiculed?" Trump said during a political rally speech in Billings, Montana, on Thursday. "He was excoriated by the fake news. They had fake news. "
"Fifty Years After His Death", "Trump added. "I have a feeling that's going to happen with us. In different ways, that's going to happen with us. "
Many people on Twitter were astonished by the claim, and used the social media platform to explain why:
Do not forget Abraham Lincoln said Trump was the best president ever, with the highest ratings ever.

Trump said tonight in Montana that his speeches (rants and ramblings to the sane) will probably go down in history as GREAT SPEECHES like the GETTYSBURG ADDRESS! Seriously, he said that. He thinks he gives great speeches like Abe Lincoln. Let that sink in.

The people standing behind him seemed bored and restless, even a little distant. Not the rah, rah guys we're used to seeing. Maybe Trump equating himself with Abraham Lincoln had the opposite effect he intended.

Trump went to Montana to have his cult followers make him feel like Abraham Lincoln.

Trump says Lincoln's Gettysburg Address was ridiculed by the "fake news" for being "too flowery," proving he has absolutely never heard of the Gettysburg Address. https://t.co/li73T21BNR

Wow Trump just said that the "Fake News" in 1863 "excoriated" Lincoln for the Gettysburg Address. Here's the New York Times, November 21, 1863. pic.twitter.com/7BYwX7dLuw

Oh we're sorry, here you go: Lincoln was excoriated by the Fake News press of his time, but do not worry, everyone will soon acknowledge that Trump's speeches are just as famous. Also, Space Force.
