Trump at rally: He assumes they did polls in Lincoln's time "so we can say we're beating Honest Abe" [View all]

Found this tidbit thanks to a tweet from Daniel Dale, who's been live-tweeting the rally:





Trump lies that he has the highest numbers among Republicans of any president. Bush was better after 9/11. He then says nobody has been able to tell him if they did polling about Lincoln: "I'm assuming they did, so we can say we're beating Honest Abe."

Polling didn't exist then.
