Jimmy Carter was incredibly unlucky when OPEC wrecked rhe world's economy and Bill Clinton was incredibly lucky when Al Gore invented the internet.

LBJ did spend like a drunken sailor but inflation only crashed the economy years later and led tro Nixon's impeachment and Jimmy Carter's single term and then Reagan benefitted from the recovery.
