Andrew Johnson is often noted for his bravery in the context of his political career, particularly during his presidency following Abraham Lincoln's assassination. He faced significant opposition and hostility from Congress, especially from Radical Republicans who sought to implement drastic Reconstruction policies. Despite the risk of impeachment and political backlash, Johnson stood firm in his beliefs and policies, advocating for a more lenient approach to Reconstruction. His willingness to confront opposition and persevere in his convictions can be seen as a demonstration of his bravery in a tumultuous political climate.
