Central to Johnson's control was "The Treatment",[35] described by two journalists:
The Treatment could last ten minutes or four hours. It came, enveloping its target, at the Johnson Ranch swimming pool, in one of Johnson's offices, in the Senate cloakroom, on the floor of the Senate itself — wherever Johnson might find a fellow Senator within his reach.
Its tone could be supplication, accusation, cajolery, exuberance, scorn, tears, complaint, and the hint of threat. It was all of these together. It ran the gamut of human emotions. Its velocity was breathtaking, and it was all in one direction. Interjections from the target were rare. Johnson anticipated them before they could be spoken. He moved in close, his face a scant millimeter from his target, his eyes widening and narrowing, his eyebrows rising and falling. From his pockets poured clippings, memos, statistics. Mimicry, humor, and the genius of analogy made The Treatment an almost hypnotic experience and rendered the target stunned and helpless.[36]

This is what I hate about it. It's mythologised as almost some kind of superpower, when really it was just an extremely weird and creepy thing to do, but because he was the president no one really knew how to respond. Like if Obama came up and hugged you from behind

Yeah there can't be a really tactful way to say "Hey get out of my grill" to the leader of the free world, even if he's standing so close you can count the blood vessels in his eyes.

He did this even before he was president, at the very least while he was a Senator if not even before then. Some people can get away with it just because its such a mind gently caress. Ask yourself, in honesty, what you would do if one of your co-workers did this to you.

I'm sure it started out less severe tho, and he just pushed it harder and harder as he gained more power.

The boss at my first job back when I was a teenager was about 7 feet tall and very fat. He'd get all bug-eyed and slooooowly shuffle toward employees whenever he talked to one, forcing them to step back every few sentences. Absolute mind gently caress for sure.

If they didn't move out of my personal space when asked, I would put my hand on their shoulder, and gently but firmly moved them to arm's length while explaining to them how most people require a certain distance between them when talking.

I work with a number of high functioning autistic people (aka STEM professionals) and have had to do just that more times than I can count.

Sometimes I've even had to put my hand on their chest and heave when they haven't listened and moved straight back in :sigh:

Popular culture has passed you by.
Personal space can vary in radius from culture to culture. It's pretty funny to see a person from Turkey talk to someone from northern Germany and see how the latter keeps backing away while the former follows until the German falls off a cliff.
