If towering over someone wasn’t demeaning enough, he’d also make people watch him poop. If you needed to go over important business with the president, he’d listen for a bit and, every once in a while, have you follow him into the bathroom and plead your case while he nonchalantly pooped. If there’s a more efficient demonstration of power, I’ve certainly never heard it (unless, of course, the president ever thought to combine the Johnson Treatment with the ol’ Watch Me Poop technique).
