[@jasonperry709]

One quick quibble: Lincoln and Johnson didn’t run on the Republican ticket, but a fusion “National Union” ticket in 1864. This was due to a split in the Democratic Party between peace Democrats who advocated a rapid end to the war and war Democrats, who supported Lincoln’s war policies (ironically, the peace Democrats nominated a war Democrat, McClellan, as their standard bearer). And no mention of the Swing Around the Circle speaking tour, which resulted in two of the impeachment articles...

[@westwoods7675]

Except that the articles relating to the Swing Around the Circle tour weren't even brought to the Senate floor when it was time to vote. It was mainly the violation of the Tenure of Office act that kicked off the impeachment proceedings.

[@boobah5643]

I don't think you can call McClellan a 'war Democrat' if a war Democrat is one that supported Lincoln's war policies. By that point McClellan hated Lincoln, and believed that the war was unwinnable. And if Lincoln hadn't sacked him, he may have been right; McClellan was a political general who thought he was Napoleon's equal but really... wasn't.

[@jasonperry709]

Boo Bah He supported prosecuting the war to its conclusion, and he didn’t support the Democratic platform of an immediate end to the war. He accepted the nomination because, as you say, he REALLY hated Lincoln and thought he was God’s gift to the Army...

I enjoyed this video quite a bit. it kept to the topic (johnson's impeachment, and no one's else), it was a pretty good run down on how the process has always been a bit wishy washy, defined by the contemporary house/senate, instead of something set in stone (which isn't what the forefathers imho had intended it to be). the only thing i would've like to have seen was a bit better explanation on what is a simple and super majority, a lot of people seem to think everything in congress is done via simple majority.

I wonder how American history would have been different had Johnson been convicted and removed. Would it have set a precedent making future Presidents easier to impeach, given that Congress had already done so once? Would the Presidency have been a weaker institution, more subject to domination by the House and Senate?

[@Wolfgrand]

It's one of those events that probably isn't even spoken about in history class, and yet could've result in some states seceding again and maybe having more countries than one in this huge piece of the world.

[@MTMyTails]

The general conversation I've seen is it would of brought in a lot more civil rights laws and we wouldn't of had the dramatic rise of the KKK and Jim Crow laws. That being said, there would of been riots and civil unrest for a lot longer and the South would basically be under a military governorship for over a decade.

[@oisnowy5368]

If the politicians don't need the voters to do what they want (make room at the top), they'll want to accrue more powers that'll let them negate voters. Eventually, they won't bother with voting at all.

[@tobibabs7725]

No Jim Crow, no end to reconstruction after the election of 1876 and more Civil rights. Basically, if Johnson had been impeached in 1868, Rosa Parks and MLK would not have had much to do in the 1950s and 1960s.

[@suarezguy]

Probably at least a little, although that probably would have faded over time away from the intensity right after the Civil War. Nobody really cared much for keeping the Tenure of Office Act and system after Johnson left and presidential power would have still increased with later wars. Nixon was not outright impeached but resigned from the start of impeachment proceedings-and presidential power still pretty quickly increased after him.

[@LadyKnightGodwin7092]
