LBJ was a work of art, but he was no commie! Actually, the way he rolled I am quite sure the commies were afraid of him. There is a book on Archive.org written by one of his political enemies...can’t remember the name...but there are lots of interesting stories about the rampant corruption. I think the guy who wrote it was a friend of John Bel Geddes or something. Definitely worth a read.
I’d be afraid of LBJ. JFK might have done well to be a bit more fearful of him—but whatever else, definitely no commie and not a peacenik either.
It would have been interesting if he had had Patton to work with, though I have little doubt that Patton was a nicer man who had more scruples.
