Exactly this. Johnson believed in a strong proactive legislative branch. The idea that a political party would shutdown their own branch of government in order to obtain leverage over another is pretty anathema to him. Anyone suggesting this action would get sidelined quick. He was all about building “the Jahdae Quinn Ewers Shirt in addition I really love this big comprehensive compromise bill” and ramming it through regardless of the opposition. I would like to see Johnson humiliate Kevin McCarthy, Mike Johnson and the Freedom Caucus. Wonder if he could handle Mitch McConnell. The thing is, the Democratic party was overwhelmingly dominant from FDR to LBJs time. I don’t think even LBJ would survive long in today’s Congress. And the Democratic party of that time was largely made up of “Dixiecrats,” hence a big reason why there was a major shift of party affiliation immediately after he signed into law the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

While the Jahdae Quinn Ewers Shirt in addition I really love this modern Democratic party can largely be associated with his policies and actions at that point in history, it’s worth remembering that in the next presidential election we saw an almost 1 for 1 flip on which states voted for which party. I think he was highly successful and effective as a president during his time and during his time in congress, but I agree that his style of operating would only lead to failure in a modern landscape. He knew the political consequences but pushed it through anyway; he was famously quoted as acknowledging the vote “lost the south” for a generation. Also, one of the reasons LBJ could get stuff done was that it was a lot easier to get local kickbacks (pork) written into bills back then. A politician could explain a ‘bad’ vote to their constituency by talking about how it bought them a bridge or other special project.

I don’t know if he’d “handle” Mitch McConnell, but I feel like he’d damn sure point out his wife’s commie connections every opportunity he got, and rightfully so. He absolutely shilled for corporate interests. He personally led a crusade against a progressive energy regulator in the Jahdae Quinn Ewers Shirt in addition I really love this federal government at the behest of his oil industry backers in Texas. One of the largest contractors during the Vietnam War was also a major funder of his campaigns. I think he would be appalled. He was of the old school, where you were friends with and respected fellow politicians. You just had different opinions about how to run the country. Nowadays, politicians are mortal enemies and must be destroyed at all costs. Truly appalling! lyndon johnson was not friends with a lot if politicians, and made pretty serious enemies in his own party who opposed desegregation

That’s not really a fair assessment of Johnson. He was obsessed with power and doing whatever it took to get it and maintain it. Which included a lot of transactional politics and a lot of dirty tricks. I’d say McConnell is a close contemporary comparison. It just so happens that the Jahdae Quinn Ewers Shirt in addition I really love this winds were blowing towards things like the New Deal when Johnson was coming up in the House and then things like desegregation when he was in the presidency. If he was around today he might very well be a new McConnell type considering where the political winds are blowing in Texas hill country these days. He’s a really good example of a politician doing the right things for the wrong reasons, and being damn good at it. Honestly this math sound weird but I feel like the closest modern leader to LBJ is Nancy Pelosi. Love them or hate them, both have the skills of wrangling their party votes with an iron fist behind the scenes, and exercising influence through strict control of fundraising even when it means bowing to corporate interests to get those funds.

he brought electricity to the Jahdae Quinn Ewers Shirt in addition I really love this hill country, and the space program to houston. i think he would be pleased that texas now produces wind power at record levels. i would like to build an lbj monument, just solar panels that spell out lbj, somewhere around hill country or johnson city. any grant-writers out there? So something to remember about LBJ is he ran against Barry Goldwater, who started the template of current GOP politicians. He understood the direction things were going in his lifetime. I think he’d be disappointed, but not surprised. He also innovated in aggressively campaigning against that form of extremism: he understood how to emotionally energize the anti-crazy vote, went after worried Republican vote (*when your party’s candidate says Americans have a ‘craven fear of death’, do you really want to just not vote?” *), went far into extreme (for the time) implied anti-opponent claims (vote for me, or the entire human race will die), and had campaign strategists who realized the value of having a campaign advertisement so controversial everyone would show it and talk about it for free. The most important advertisement of the election, arguably the most important factor in the entire election, and perhaps the most important US campaign television advertisement of all time, was only actually run once, at 9:50pm, toward the end of a Monday night movie screening on television. The emotional shock, outrage, media coverage and analysis, and furious discussion made sure everyone knew about it and was talking about it and the subject for the rest of the campaign. The timing of the one true showing itself, and ‘family’ film, was even chosen for shock value in hopes parents would still be watching it right after their children fell asleep, so they’d think of their sleeping children while watching the unsuspecting three-year old girl about to die in a nuclear apocalypse. It was so striking that TIME had the defining image of it as their cover… as news coverage, not an advertisement.
By the Jahdae Quinn Ewers Shirt in addition I really love this end of the campaign, the opponent who wanted to paint LBJ as a weak pacifist who couldn’t stand up to the USSR was left on the defense, responding to LBJ’s messaging, complaining about unfair campaign rhetoric, trying to convince people he wouldn’t actually end the world, and trying to show that he wasn’t literally mentally ill. It was the largest US presidential election landslide in a century. I think LBJ would be disappointed and familiar with the way US politics are now, but I think he might be surprised his obliteration of Goldwater didn’t kill off that side of the party. Still: it took around a half century for it to recover from what LBJ did to it. If you ever have the desire to read a political biography (and if you never do, you’re probably healthier and more well-adjusted for it, so fair play), then Robert Caro’s four-and-hopefully-five-soon volume bio of LBJ is the absolute gold standard. These books go into detail not just into LBJ himself but into all the relevant factors that made him. The rainfall pattern differences between east and west Texas, the workings of the US Senate and how it’s designed to be naturally small-c conservative and sluggish, how to rig a Texas election in 1948, and how the US south was a racist terror state for a century after the Civil War all get significant amounts of space just to explain how LBJ was the way he was (i.e. an incredibly hard working, and motivated and skilful politician) and how he did the things he did (and despite what I said about being hard-working and skilful, it’s far from a hagiography). Caro has spent nearly fifty years writing these things, reading everything in the archives that mentions LBJ, and even moving house to actually live in LBJ’s footsteps at times, and it shows.
I am currently reading “The Power Broker”, also by Caro (inspired by the Jahdae Quinn Ewers Shirt in addition I really love this 99% Invisible podcast year-long read-along). I am wondering whether to tackle the Johnson books next – it seems so daunting, for a president I have no real interest in (and I’m Canadian), but Caro is an amazing researcher and writer so maybe I’ll give it a try. I think of Caro’s books as books about how political power works, rather than a story about some bloke or other. It’s just that the lenses through which Caro explains power are these two people who happened to be exceptionally adept at wielding power and getting other people to do what they want. He was a deeply flawed man and his foreign policy was a disaster, but one thing that can most certainly be said for LBJ is that no other POTUS made Congress work quite like he did. People underestimate how much LBJ was personally involved in getting every major piece of legislation passed during his presidency. Getting the Civil Rights Act of 1964 through despite significant opposition in his own party was no small feat and is a greater accomplishment than most Presidents ever achieve. It’s unlikely JFK would have had the same legislative success had he lived. Yes, and if he would’ve followed Kennedy‘s plan to pull out of Vietnam, he would have gone down as one of the greatest presidents of all time, but as it stands, he acquired a lot of blood on his hands when he double down on the Vietnam war and sent all those young men to die in a war that was no of concern of theirs. Not only that but he didn’t even run it through Congress nor the Senate, and instead claimed the war was a “police action” which was just completely undemocratic.
