Maybe somehow a bit more embarrassing?

And now I wonder. What quote of Lincoln's that Lincoln never said are we referring to?
(I do not follow all conventions, and debates, you know... Mostly you don't get to know politics any better by doing so, you know).

Lara Trump said, "“Abraham Lincoln once famously said: ‘America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.’”

Lincoln never said that though.

Now ironically, that non-existent quote from Lincoln has more wisdom than she could imagine, but I guess she didn't understand the wisdom of her own words, since I guess she said it to support Donald Trump, and "destroying the freedoms ourselves" is precisely what Donald Trump is doing.

So whether or not Lincoln uttered those words or not, I guess they were "quoted" by somebody who didn't even know their own meaning....
