President Lyndon Johnson loved to intimidate people by holding meetings on the toilet—and that’s just the beginning

Lyndon Baines Johnson had a dream. His dream was to become the greatest president that ever breathed. He may have introduced many positive political changes, but what he is probably remembered well for is the Vietnam War, not to mention his blinding arrogance.

Johnson would go to great lengths to achieve this by leaning over people and belching, swearing, spitting or laughing in their faces. At one time, he took a piss on a secret serviceman who shielded him from the public glare. Horrified, the President told the man: ‘That’s alright son, it’s my prerogative’.
