Tipping Point Candidate Makes Major Abraham Lincoln Mistake in Viral Clip

An ITV game show contestant is going viral online after making a huge mistake about when Abraham Lincoln was alive.

Hanifa, a primary school teacher, appeared on Tipping Point when host Ben Shepherd asked her: “At the Malta Summit in 1989, which US president declared the end of the Cold War?”

Hanifa replied: “I should know since I studied History at A level… I’m torn between two subjects: JF Kennedy and Abraham Lincoln.”

Abraham Lincoln was assassinated in 1865 after leading the United States during the American Civil War.
