Lincoln was as fair to McClellan as possible. He did not even wait until the midterm elections to let the general understand he would be replaced.

How did Lincoln force the South to fire the first shots of the war?
Lincoln was a Unionist and opposed the South's rebellion. With that said, Lincoln did not want to be accused of starting a war. The full blame for starting the armed conflict was because the US Fort Sumter was fired upon and surrendered. Lincoln now had every reason to stop the rebellion, that he did not start. Lincoln had no choice but to call for 30,000 volunteers to put down the Southern rebellion. This soon led up to the first major battle, the First Battle of Bull Run in July of 1861.
