Ron Chernow Quote
On September 3, an especially hostile audience baited Johnson in Cleveland, where his behavior flirted with new lows. When a heckler yelled that Johnson should hang Jeff Davis, the president rejoined, Why not hang Thad Stevens and Wendell Phillips?62 When someone in the crowd hollered, Is this dignified? Johnson shot back: I care not for dignity.
