Oh I understand it was a different time. I am not saying LBJ wasn’t involved, I’m just saying seems odd he would kill for the job but then not fight to keep it.
And yes if its possible he was just a puppet in the larger conspiracy and they told him step down or we go public, or we will kill you too.. or something.. Anything is possible.
However I will say this, it sure looks to me like the fatal shot was an upward shot discharged from within the car, up through his neck and out his head.
I remember reading years ago that SS accidentally discharged a gun in the car reacting to the shots... sure as hell looks like that to me.
Looks like he reacts to being hit or something, and then upward blast just blows his head off.
If this is the truth, of the fatal shot, then it explains at least somewhat the cover up. No one wants to destroy a loyal person for an accident.
Either way, the truth, whatever it is, was not what the public was told... but that was how it was. They told the public that those 3 astronauts who burned alive in the apollo capsule “died instantly” as well... which was a bold faced lie.
I understand the times, and I also understand there can be non nepharious reasons to not tell the truth..
All I can say for certain is, that the what has been told to the public, is not the truth.... that much is completely obvious to even the casual observer.
