Lincoln believed that once a state always a state, which meant they had no power to secede. He was very forgiving to the CSA (Confederate States of America/southern states) after the war, and allowed them back into the union & begin reconstruction if 10% of the southern states who seceded's population swore allegiance to the Union. The Radicals believed that the Southern states had committed suicide and destroyed their own states.

Some southern states began to talk of secession in response to growing tensions over slavery and states' rights, particularly following the election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860.

This sentiment was fueled by a belief that states had the right to govern themselves and decide their own laws, including whether to allow slavery.
