@ThaTruthiest after union victory at antietam, lincoln would draft the emancipation proclamation and issue it at the start of 1863. which is to say that lincoln was maintaining the pretense that this war would not touch slavery up and until he had the political space to say otherwise — PolitiTweet.org

@ThaTruthiest the thing you have to remember is that the letter from which this narrative is drawn, to horace greeley in 1862, was written when the union was losing the war. it was part of a political effort to maintain support for the war effort. — PolitiTweet.org

@ThaTruthiest another way to think about this is that there were live compromises in 1860 and 1861 that would have prevented war and preserved the union. lincoln rejected them for a reason, and that is, they would have enshrined slavery in the constitution. — PolitiTweet.org
