Not very well; they did everything in their power to prevent him from exercising the Executive powers of President because they saw him as a Southern sympathizer. Congress voted to reduce the number of seats on the Supreme Court during Johnson's presidency to prevent him from nominating a justice; they also impeached Johnson and attempted to remove him from office for reasons as diverse as violating the 1867 Tenure of Office Act to libeling Congress.

No. The Radical Republicans saw President Johnson as a Southern sympathizer who was a threat to their Reconstruction plans, and attempted to impeach him and remove him from office. The Republicans despised Johnson.

The radical republicans tried to remove Johnson from office by first impeaching him then trying to convict him in the Senate. He would have been convicted and removed but for one vote.
