War as tool to rally support over imagined foe
Two men discuss deceiving the public to endure privations for the country, proposing a sham war with a foreign nation to unite parties. They reference Maine matters, Swartwout defalcation, and political figures like Buchanan, Maine senators, and a Statesman article as justification. The plan hinges on fear of conflict to suppress party divisions and protect administration aims.
