Trump said he has been the least racist president since Abraham Lincoln. Biden later mockingly called Trump "Abraham Lincoln over here" to reference what Trump originally said. So much later that many people forgot that he was calling back to an earlier thing Trump said, apparently.
I didn't even hear the 'over here' part. I just heard Biden say that Abraham Lincoln was the most racist president in American history and didn't realize he was referring to Trump until he started talking about illegal immigrants from Mexico. I wasn't even sure it was a gaffe up until then given that Biden had expressed in an interview that he didn't believe America has ever lived up to its ideals. It wouldn't be that much of a stretch for him to also believe that Lincoln was this great racist.
Can someone give me the rundown about Biden, Trump, and Lincoln in the debate? I wasn't able to catch it tonight.

Then GEOTUS had to correct him like a child and was “No Joe, I said SINCE Abraham Lincoln.” Joe was a little confused (again), you see.
Hell that moment was such a stumble I forgot that Trump actually corrected him, too. Holy shit, Biden hung himself live on stage.
yup. He hunged himself when he said that congress wouldn't pass his policies.. 40 years and congress never once pass his bills apparently.
