Abraham Lincoln is considered by many to be the greatest president of all time. As the 16th commander in chief he served from 1861 until his assassination in 1865, and in that time helped preserve the union during the civil war, and abolish slavery. But was he real?
Of course, he was real, that’s a ridiculous question, but have you ever seen anyone who looks like him? Standing at a lean 6 foot 4, Lincoln imposed a striking figure for his time and is believed to have suffered from a connective tissue disorder called Marfan syndrome that impacted limb length and facial structure.
“I’ve never met anyone who even kinda looks like this,” the standup comic Sasha von Didkovsky Tweeted along with a photo.

But while some people agreed with the tweet, others flooded the comments with doppelgänger suggestions. But somehow, none of them quite seemed to match.
Not even close babyyyyy

Theo Von looks like the closest option, with perhaps John Fetterman is a more realistic second.
“I had such a huge fear of this man as a child, I used to think he was under my bed,” @_YoshIsLanguid commented.
Of course, Lincoln was a real, breathing, human president. But the question remains, have you ever really met someone in person that reminds you of good old Abraham?
Be honest now, Abe always was.
