False. Eisenhower did what Lincoln would have done. He used his appointment power to build the Republican Party in states where it barely existed before.

I suspect he also appointed judges who enforced the desegregation orders. That was what segregationists feared in his day and what slaveowners feared a century before.

Ike was very much following in Lincoln's footsteps, as was recognized at the time.

Lincoln did not enforce the law as written. He suspended habeas corpus and locked people up willy nilly for simply criticizing him. In his process of seizing property from southern people, he did not give them "due process" but merely applied a blanket prejudice of "guilty" to everyone.

Lincoln even signed an arrest warrant for the chief justice of the supreme court, but thankfully his federal marshal, body guard and friend, chose not to enforce it.

Lincoln was the closest thing to a dictator this nation has ever seen.

Eisenhower enforced a court decision with which he did not agree. Lincoln simply ignored court decisions with which he disagreed, and then tried to arrest a judge that gave him a court decision with which he disagreed.

Eisenhower was nothing like Lincoln.
