      Johnson was a loathsome racist and a horrible president but the law he was impeached for violating — the Tenure of Office Act — was ultimately found unconstitutional by the US Supreme Court. Anyway, for history buffs, enjoy.

          Have you checked out THE IMPEACHERS by Brenda Wineapple? Terrific book. It’s wild how most of Johnson’s just accepted he was going to get acquitted and were waiting for him to lose the upcoming election… 🤔

          At least it was a law. We base impeachment articles on feelings now.

          We survived Johnson. The jury is out on surviving Trump.

          No president since Lincoln did more for people of color than LBJ. It’s as simple as that.

          You don't realize this whole thread is about ANDREW Johnson? The 1st President impeached and the man who cast the deciding vote to acquit. Not Lyndon Johnson.
