No matter what you think of him, he sure knew how to get things done! ...By "things", I mean murdering his predecessor, authorizing the barbaric slaughter of hundreds of thousands of unarmed civilians including women and children, while managing to at the very least throw black people and old folk some crumbs along the way--it's complicated!
He was a ego maniac. He was involved in JFK death. He was a terrible person and even worse President. He started Vietnam and God 56,000 Americans killed . He lied to the American people. He was the worst president ever. JFK said to Bobby one time my God could you imagine if LBJ ever became president!!.
The picture of him being sworn in on the plane, laughing with jackie Kennedy right beside him with her husbands brains still on her clothes tells you all you need to know.
There's always been something about seeing and hearing LBJ that alarms me. I don't get that with a lot of historical figures. Stalin is one of them that comes to mind.
LBJ is the most confusing US President ever. For one, he probably should have never been president and unlikely would have ever been democratically elected. He only achieved the office through unusual circumstances. LBJ was notoriously undiplomatic and unstatesmanlike. He was basically an impulsive and confused alcoholic with a talent for manipulating people. In absolute irony, he achieved monumental legislative results that perhaps 99% of politicians could never dream of, all while committing one of the biggest failures in US history. Still, in spite of the fact that he seems to be the exception to every rule as President, he is quite easily overlooked.
Example given: "The Emperor's new clothes" is an old, old story. All this "woke" bullshit nowadays is the stage. Where the show happens. The "repeat" is this; Check out how loudly "all the emperor's men" freak out and protest when the little boy tells the truth. Think about it.
@@morjik2288 ya it does. E.g.: The moral of the "emperor's new clothes",which is an old,old story, is how much all the emperor's men protested when the little boy told the truth. Think about that for a minute and the take another minute to consider this whole "woke culture" idiocy. That is what I see, anyway. History AND human nature repeat and/or never change.
If you dont learn from past mistakes your bound to repeat them. Why do you think we are having so many problems today. The younger generations don't know the past mistakes and why they are important to learn from
What did you think of his presidency?
As the 36th President I see 3 6s
Sounds like most past and recent Presidents' actions and beliefs...I'm not surprised

@@d.c.8828yeah he did get things done 58,000 dead troops in Vietnam

If there is a HELL, you can bet your ass and bottom dollar that LBJ is roasting in it.
Absolutely!
Donald Trump is much worse than LBJ, so he'll be much deeper in hell
Both democrats and both republicans who do evil and do not repent and didn't Baptiste in Jesus name will go to hell
Divine Mercy
@@SuperGreatSphinx Sodom and Gamorrah , Roast L.B.J......BURN in eternity !
"LBJ, what did you do when the shots were fired that killed Kennedy?"
Johnson winces and sticks his fingers in his ears.
'Hey hey, LBJ, how many kids did you kill today?'
@spacecatandthekittens1954: Many decades later, that morphed into “Bush lied, People died.” Different presidents, SAME horrific policies.
Its amazing how much damage one administration can do. Its a cultureal thing, some might say it has been fermenting for generations. . .
The US continuing their greatest hits today…

So many different names of potatoes in the UK compared to where I live.
Let’s not forget how he had Eartha Kitt black balled bc Lady Bird couldn’t handle the truth of Urban issues
Now I see why Big Boss hesitated to shake his hand after the events of Operation Snake Eater.
"And a jerk to anyone who actually met him." LOL. You forgot one thing though: Medicare.
He did a lot of great things, but he still was an asshole lol… I admire him but he is what he is, sometimes that’s the only way to get things done
The tragedy of Vietnam... 😢😢😢😢😢 Another World was possible....
Indonesia in 1965
@@lemonadedreams399 Chile... and so on ...
Crazy hearing about the riots.. shame this mirrors what’s going on today.
Unfortunately, no progress.
Johnson learned from FDR, it's interesting how they're both accused of the same corrupt behavior.

So that why they call it a big Johnson.
Lbj don't know nuttin bout nuttin
his legacy is not mixed lol....
He died in 1975, looked like the healthist man in the world
I was going to say that Republican Presidents have had much stronger character than Democrats...but Trump is evening the competition on his own

I think you should recheck your facts and dates.

"communist dictator sukarno" uhhh...what?
Well, obviously you've put this video together to show his best characteristics so what kind of responded do you expect!!!
He was shady guy Not that bad of president except Vietnam
i liked LBJ he wast prefect but he got things done un like jfk could have
His presidency helped the less fortunate and the downtrodden people in society like him.
'And then he drafted them.
Doesn't matter now so who really cares ?
We MUST care.History repeats itself.
