Seceding Calhoun's head from his body 🔥🔥I mean what were we expecting here
I strUGGLED so hard deciding between wedding/bedding Clay and Webster but the verdict is wedding Danny boy and bedding the Blond Bitch Extraordinaire™ I'm just Webster biased okay.. he needs to be my husband NOW
I confess I do not know about the other trios as much as I should.. 😔so tbh I'm just gonna skim their wiki pages and also keep an eye out for their ✨looks✨
Aight so I have decided to wed Douglas because I love looking down on people teehee
I'll bed Breckenridge. He's good looking yah and I would've wedded him but then i wouldn't know what to do with Douglas
Beheading Davis 😞 there can only be one illegitimate Calhoun kid
Anyways trio number threee
I already know I'm gonna wed Seward. Okay he's literally Lincoln's wife he's mine now
You know what It'd be funny if we beheaded Sumner (youre welcome Preston Brooks) and bedded Stevens. yeah lets go with that
William Seward - “A party Republican with one idea but that is a noble idea . . . the idea of equality -- the equality of all men before human tribunals and human laws.”

A letter from seward to his wife
Your good sense suggested to you on Sunday many reflections for the past, and hopes for the future, that I had not attempted. The past is irrevocable, and ought not to be deeply lamented. As to the future. We must do our duty and leave the consequences to god; by no means assuming that such consequences as we forebode will certainly happen. His providence, which has made us so that we cannot fail to err, is at the same time tender to us: and either averts the apparently irretrievable evils we fear, or modified them, or prepares us to bear them. May I venture on another reflection? Your duties and mine, your happiness and mine, so far as the domestic relations are concerned, are chiefly toward each other. Our relations to our children are a consequence, an incident, and the duties of those relations will be all the more wisely and well performed, according as we preserve, deep and full, the fountain of love for each other. I prove this to be so when I think of my brave oldest boy, my cheerful, spiritual Fred, my kind and faithful Willie, and the laughter-loving eyes of my mother blazing anew in the soft, sweet face of her whom you are teaching to love me so devotedly. But a truce to moralizing. God grant us grace to continue for the remainder of our pilgrimage, and bring us to a reunion, free from the grossness that unavoidably enters into the most hallowed earthly relations.
Love him anyway. He was adorable
Robert E. Lee reapplies for citizenship.
“Lee’s oath of allegiance was forwarded to the secretary of state. But instead of passing it on to the president, he gave it to a friend as a souvenir — perhaps purposely wanting to derail Lee’s application…”
HMM THE SECRETARY OF STATE AT THE TIME WOULD HAVE BEEN
OH GEE
WILLIAM HENRY SEWARD
DAMMIT SEWARD THE HELL YOU DOING
He is adorable and not too old for me. He would probably think I was too old for him. Sigh
so I was watching "Lincoln" with a friend this evening
ME: *Seward comes on screen* OH OH THERE’S MY BABY
FRIEND: BUT HE’S…OLDER THAN YOU
ME:
Saving lincoln
I watched this movie but it paled so in comparison to the lincoln movie in authenticity that I had trouble watching it. Bruce Davison whom I like as an actor looks nothing like seward nor does lincoln.
