Quote:" If we are to guard against ignorance and remain free, it is the responsibility of every American to be informed." Thomas Jefferson.
In the vice-presidential debate, Kamala Harris "quoted" Abraham Lincoln. Paraphrasing Harris, she said that when Abraham Lincoln was 27 days away from the next election, he said he would NOT nominate a justice for the Supreme Court until AFTER the election, because the American PEOPLE deserved a chance to elect their OWN choice for the Supreme Court.
The only problem with that is that Kamala just made that up. Abraham Lincoln never said that. He did NOT nominate a justice for the Supreme Court because Congress was not in session. They didn't return until 3 days after the election. The MOMENT Congress returned, Lincoln submitted his nomination.
But Kamala Harris thinks the American people are so stupid they will just believe any made up story and fail to check on it. Even left wing leaning Snopes says what she said is false.
