Reply to comment by Porkamiso in TIL that as President-Elect, US Pres. James Buchanan improperly wrote to a Supreme Court justice asking him to vote pro-slavery in the Dred Scott case. The court would rule 7-2 that Scott was a possession, not a person, and denied his petition for freedom by archfapper
Trump’s definitely bottom 5, maybe even bottom 3 but Buchanan completely fucked up with regards to the civil war
