GOP
Lincoln's political party
GOP is an abbreviation for Grand Old Party, a nickname for the Republican Party in the United States.
The term dates to the late 19th century and appears frequently in headlines and political coverage: GOP lawmakers blocked the bill, the GOP primary.
Despite "old" in the name, the Republican Party is younger than the Democratic Party.
