He was a physical coward who went to great lengths to avoid combat service in World War II. As Lady Bird sat next to them, he would thrust his hand up another woman's skirt. He treated his devoted wife with abominable contempt. Inordinately proud of his sexual apparatus, Johnson was given to bragging: 'Jumbo had a real workout tonight.' He liked to pee in the washbasin in his office in front of female secretaries and then wave his member about. A favoured device to embarrass subordinates was obliging them to take his orders while he defecated. He sucked up to his superiors and kicked down on his inferiors.

Like many of his kind, he was driven by childhood demons, in this case the humiliation and insecurity suffered when his father lost the family ranch in Texas.
