==Historical Parallels==

According to many commentators, the showdown between Clinton and Trump was reminiscent of the similar confrontation between Democracy and Fascism between Franklin Delano Roosevelt (Clinton) and Adolf Hitler (Trump) in 1932.

Other commentators have, on the contrary, suggested that a more appropriate historical parallel can be found between the debate between Abraham Lincoln (Clinton) and Jefferson Davis (Trump) in 1864 on the future of slavery.
