Washington: Alright my fellow brethren, I must resign as President and retire, all I ask is for no partisanship to tear apart our young, prospering nation. *literal civil war during the next presidency's first term* Washington: What the FUCK-
@@TravisBroski Yeah, he was talking shit and he knew it. If Washington actually believed partisanship was going to destroy the country, he would have done something to avoid it unlike what he actually did, which was fucking nothing. Either he was stupid and delusional to the point of insanity… or he understood that the political division was something of a necessity but also knew the rhetorical power of these ideas had to be promoted even if everyone was just going to ignore them anyway because it’s still an ideal to strive for. (Also bipartisanship means people get along, partisanship is the one where they fight)
If anyone would pull a Deus Ex moment to save the early United States, I'd be willing to bet Washington could do it. I mean, the man might've been a wizard if you look into his background.
What absolute insanity. I appreciate this since the few alternate scenarios i've seen of Hamilton being president are kind of rosy. Highlighting his desire to end slavery and how the military would have been developed sooner and better under his rule. I like how this emphasizes his bad judgement calls.
Really makes you appreciate Adams' efforts to keep the newborn US out of war doesn't it? Stick to writing domestic policy, Hamilton lol (btw everybody reading this should check out the John Adams HBO miniseries if you haven't, it's pretty great and has episodes covering this period of history well)
John's face is so amusing during that scene where his mind is trying to process what Hamilton is suggesting to him. "Are you questioning my loyalty sir?" "No Mr. Hamilton I'm questioning your sanity!!"
I mean the truth is that the musical never gets that far. Washington was sworn into office in 1789. The finale would be in 87, probably a soft song about a return to home getting interrupted by a storm
They already made that but it's a miniseries called John Adams on HBO Max. Lin-Manuel is actually familiar with it and included a reference (when the King says 'John Adams? I know him)

I suppose if Hamilton was President, Hamilton would have to be a three act, three hour long play, with an entire extra act dedicated to his Presidency.
I think more likely, the play would never have been made. Hamilton (the play) only came into existence because of how important a seemingly forgetable man was. The man was never president, not someone you memorise off a list. Had he been president, the play's original writers might have targetted some other historic figure if at all to write about.

0:04 It's not that weird that a Hamilton musical exists. The fact even Jerome Bonaparte, Napoleon's forgettable brother, got one show ANYONE can get a musical
There was a alt-history musical called "BEST!" which reverses the career of former Beatles drummer Pete Best where he becomes one of, if not THE most influential figure in modern music while thr Beatles are reduced to nothing more but a one hit wonder.
Like imagine talking to Jefferson about Abolition, and he agrees it's a detestable institution while having hundreds of slaves; no wonder the guy hated his guts
People love to rag on John Adams, and don't get me wrong, he was an old white guy from the 1700s. But he really was the best of the bunch. He and his son, of the first i think 10 presidents, were the only non slave owners. Which really is the only point I need to make
The man was so controversial one theory is that the natural born citizen clause was written into the presidential requirements specifically to disqualify Hamilton since he was born in the Carribbean not in any of the 13 colonies.
Except it didn't disqualify him, because all the people legally resident in the United States at the time the Constitution was signed were recognized as native. Otherwise, none of the early presidents would have qualified, as none of them were born in the United States, which didn't exist yet. There was no legal distinction between those who were born in Virginia when it was a British colony and those who were born in St. Kitts.
Wait... George Washington wasn't naturally born in US either since Virginia was British. Not a "US territory" it was straight up not part of USA which didn't exist yet.
@@alex_zetsu Right, exactly. The rule was that everyone who was a citizen of any state when the US was born became a native-born citizen of the United States. After that, they had to be born within the United States (or, based on later case law, born to two parents who are US citizens living abroad), but they had to have a way for the adult generation to be recognized as citizens at the birth of the nation.
My librarian in elementary school told me that everyone on money was a president… Benjamin Franklin or Alexander Hamilton was not president Mrs. Clayton.
Another thing to note about Hamilton: he was born on Nevis (of St. Kitts and Nevis) and grew up in the Caribbean. He didn't grow up with the state-rivalry mindset or biases that would make, say a Pennsylvanian distrust a Virginian. He was willing to work with both North and South and not be influenced by state-on-state politics.
That definitely explains his desire for strong central government. During the war the states meandered to support the army he was a part of for what would have been, to him, the pettiest reasons and the states needed to work together to form a coherent nation.

I know you get lots of suggestions, but I think a scenario where there was no great purge by Stalin would be really interesting to look into.
pls post part 2
bro this video made me lose my mind. would 100% love a part 2 lmao
This needs a part 2
please do a part 2 this sounds cool
I think Hamilton arresting Jefferson is a too big of a leap. Jefferson is a big fish, and Hamilton would know that it could spark a civil war.
I'm not sure Hamilton would mind.
Jefferson would have deserved being imprisoned. The man threatened to kill his political opponents by bringing over a guillotine and putting them in it.
You say destabilizing crisis, the authoritarian says **opportunity to consolidate power and openly hunt dissidents. *Chaos is a ladder.***
@@AiluridaeAureus All too timely a reminder. Thank you.
@@AiluridaeAureus too bad. Still isn’t realistic. The sedition act never went that far
This is one of the most interesting scenarios so far! Please make a part 2!
15:13 Well...that escalated quickly...!!!
That would be a hella fascinating book. I do hope you continue with this
please continue this video
Keep going with this timeline, please. I wanna see unhinged Hamilton go Ham.
We need a “What if Ron Paul” became president
PLEASE PART TWO!!!
Yes dude please do a sequel!
This has got to be the most fun I've had with one of your scenarios since Trotsky started WWII
0:01 hello timer viewers
If Hamilton was president, duels will still happen lol
Happen a Patreon vid finally is on yt for all us Non-Patreon user can see
Have a great day :D
But would Burr challenge Hamilton to a duel in this timeline?
@@gavros9636it’s a joke
I would love to see part two for this timeline!
2:30 End of a.d
PLEASE PART 2 THIS VID IS AMAZING!!!!
I will forever hold a grudge against Alexander Hamilton purely because of the musical. When I was in middle school, those same songs were everywhere. I couldn't escape them. I can still hear them in my sleep.
That damn musical was everywhere and I hated it. The play wasn't even great it was kinda mid
Kind of like School House Rock?
Sounds like a good time
@@charlesshelton7989 Yeah but at least School House Rock had a few decent songs.
Unlike Hamilton.
Middle school sounds like it was "Work Work*
This might be your best scenario ever. Great work
you posted your Patreon video! congrats!
