Members phkrause Posted April 15, 2020 Author Members Posted April 15, 2020 22 hours ago, phkrause said: Who became president after Abraham Lincoln was assassinated? Andrew Johnson Martin Van Buren Ulysses S. Grant Andrew Jackson Andrew Johnson 7 hours ago, dgrimm60 said: ANDREW JOHNSON Answer: Andrew Johnson assumed the presidency as he was vice president at the time of the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. Johnson was also a target on that fateful night, but his would-be assassin failed to show up. Three hours after Lincoln died, Johnson was sworn in as the 17th President of the United States. Johnson was a Democrat who ran with Lincoln on the National Union ticket, coming to office as the Civil War concluded. His lenient Reconstruction policies toward the South, and his vetoing of Reconstruction acts, embittered the Republicans in Congress which led to his political downfall and impeachment, though he was acquitted in the Senate by one vote.
