Did President Lincoln not attend a meeting with Stanton on the last day of his life where he opposed trials for Davis and the rest?

Can you show that -didn't- happen?

I note that this TNT production is based on this oblong, squarish thing called a book. A book by an author named Jim Bishop. Have you heard of books? Where do you get your material?

This is getting sort of surreal now.

Right here:

Now, are you disputing the -fact- that President Lincoln opposed treason trials, or not?
