Here you go. (Repos fedora27 and updates27 are local mirrors of the
FC27 repos.
# dnf --allowerasing --enablerepo=fedora27 --enablerepo=updates27
downgrade thunderbird-52.9.1-1.fc27.x86_64
Run this as
# dnf -x libreoffice\* --best --allowerasing --enablerepo=fedora27
--enablerepo=updates27 downgrade thunderbird-52.9.1-1.fc27.x86_64
and it should point to the dependency of libreoffice you want to
downgrade that causes it to be erased.

It is probably one of the other above packages that libreoffice has a
later dependency on, say hunspell. In order to downgrade it,
libreoffice has to be erased.
