As a slaveholder and a Democrat, President Andrew Johnson was C) often at odds with Republicans in Congress.
Andrew Jhonson took office upon the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln in 1865 when the American Civil War was coming to its end. One of the characteristics of his four-year term was his strong disagreements with Republicans in Congress.
As the Civil War had ended, Johnson tried to restore the Southern states (The ex-confederate states) to the Union by granting amnesty to most ex-Confederates and allowing the southern states to elect new governments. Most of the governments elected in the states enacted "black codes", as a way to control and repress the freed slaves. The Radicals of the U.S. Congress found Johnson's policies too lenient and disagreed completely.
They also strongly disagreed over equal rights to black people. In 1866, Johnson vetoed a pair of legislation that protected blacks ( Freedmen’s Bureau bill and the Civil Rights bill) and urged Southern states not to ratify the 14th Amendment which granted citizenship to blacks, however it was ratified in 1868.
Over the following years on Johnson' term, tensions didn't cede, and in February 1868, the House of Representatives voted to impeach Johnson for violating several laws. However, in May, he was acquitted of the charges by the Senate.
President Andrew Johnson, as a slaveholder and a Democrat, often clashed with Republicans in Congress during the Reconstruction era.
As a slaveholder and a Democrat, President Andrew Johnson was often at odds with Republicans in Congress.

Johnson's stance on these issues hindered his ability to effectively lead the country through Reconstruction, making option B) 'unable to lead the country through Reconstruction' the correct answer.

The correct option is D He accused Christians of setting fire to the city Rome.
Nero Claudio César Augusto Germanicus was emperor of the Roman Empire between October 13, 54 and June 9, 68, last emperor of the Julio-Claudia dynasty. During his reign he focused most of his attention on diplomacy and trade, and tried to increase the cultural capital of the Empire by building various theaters and promoting competitions and athletic events. Diplomatically and militarily his reign is characterized by success against the Parthian Empire, the repression of the revolt of the British (60-61) and an improvement of relations with Greece. In year 68 took place a coup d'etat in which several governors were involved, after which, apparently, they forced it to commit suicide.
The reign of Nero is commonly associated with tyranny and extravagance. He is remembered for a series of systematic executions, including that of his own mother and that of his British stepbrother, and above all by the widespread belief that while Rome burned he was composing with his lyre, as well as a relentless persecutor of the Christians
