The Federalists wanted to do that to Jefferson explicitly. It's all the same trick: "Thomas Jefferson is a threat to our Democracy" says Alexander Hamilton (who the Left still beat their dick over as a war-mongering, intellectual, elitist).
Aaron Burr was right to shoot him in the fucking face. He did us all a favor and killed a petty tyrant who spent his whole life trying to destroy the American Liberal Republic from the inside.
History did prove Hamilton right about one thing. Had we focused on agrarianism the industrialized powers would have eaten us alive. And that may yet happen since we sold all our industry to Winnie the Pooh. Also Burr was a traitor himself unless that telling of history is wrong (it wouldn't be the first time).
Maybe I'm looking at that era with rose tinted glasses on but it seems that all the Founders contributed something of value to the country, even if they were dead wrong about other things. The same can't be said about today's Democrats or their Republican enablers. Which is especially ironic considering Andrew fucking Jackson founded the modern incarnation of that party. Jackson's opponents hated him for the same reason the elites today hate Trump: He actually gave a shit about the common man. Jackson probably did more for the common man than any other 19th century president.
I seriously doubt the US would have ever been 'eaten alive' by Europeans. Ignoring the problem of geography, and the difficulty of Empire, the English culture did wonders for a country smaller than Louisiana. Just the 13 colonies (given time) would have had an absolutely mammoth industrial core. Even without Manifest Destiny, most of the early US expansion into the midwest and Mississippi area was peaceful and done through trade and land purchases rather than land grabs. It was only with people like Jackson that it became demographic replacement, even of assimilated Indians.
Britain was actually the only real imperial threat the US ever faced; and they could never have defended Canada if we attacked with a competent army, or had even middling support from the Canadians. We lost in 1812 because we had shockingly incompetent officers, stiff Canadian resistance, massive internal turmoil, and hardly any industrial base. And we fought to a draw, effectively.
Reviewing "War Plan Red" shows the difficulty of a war with Britain at possibly the absolute peak of it's Empire, and at best, they'd still lose Canada eventually.
God I hate when they say shit like this. If the founding fathers were alive today they'd be burning the fucking country to the ground just because of income tax alone let alone everything else.
One of the few based things I've seen in the last decade on TV was in the first few minutes of that shitty ABC Ichabod Crane show from a long way back.
"10% tax on FOOD?!?? We fought the British over a 2% tax on paper"
But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
Hmm....apparently according to Thomas Jefferson it's my duty to overthrow the government.

Was he always this retarded or is his age catching up with him?
He was, but I'm sure it's only gotten worse with time and age.
He's not a retard. He's evil.
They did it twice. Once against themselves no less.
bring back the aoc
Yes I can. It's why we fucking have the United States of America.

Which is more appropriate, the Price is Right loss music or the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme music?
May I add Always Sunny as an additional option?

There will be no redemption arc for Al Sharpton. He will die as what he's been his whole life: a deceitful, hatemongering race grifter.
Wow. Just wow
This is truly next level.
