        LBJ knew who the assassins were and therefore did not worry about being killed. There are other crazies always but in those days there was national mourning and he was pretty safe.

        Not consistent with the story that the presidential plane was late leaving Texas on the evening of November 22, 1963 because LBJ freaked out and hid in the plane's bathroom and wouldn't come out, saying "They're going to kill us all!"

        Why would he be worried when he was involved in the assassination?

        The conversation between J. Edgar Hoover and LBJ was interesting after this. It showed that LBJ had legitimate fear of being assassinated also.

        He did right by JFK's memory. I'm sure Jackie was grateful. #JFKassassination

        LBJ clearly hadn't missed many meals or visited his tailor. Who was the last POTUS to wear a morning coat?

        Didn’t Nixon wear one to his inaugural & to the Rose Garden wedding of Tricia?

        Reagan was the last President to wear a 'stroller suit' on his inauguration day in 1981.

        Seems like it was another of his attempts to be the anti-Carter!

        An anti-Carter would be a Devil-worshiper who destroys poor people's homes?

        LBJ had no fear of assassination, because he had JFK killed.
