President Lyndon B. Johnson's administration was marked by the Great Society programs, which aimed to eliminate poverty and racial injustice, significantly expanding social welfare initiatives. However, his escalation of the Vietnam War led to widespread protests and social unrest, overshadowing his domestic achievements. In contrast, President Richard Nixon's tenure was defined by the policy of détente with the Soviet Union and China, alongside his efforts to end U.S. involvement in Vietnam. However, his presidency was marred by the Watergate scandal, which ultimately led to his resignation and diminished public trust in government.
