The harsh public antagonism of the 1790s (click here) largely came to an end with the victory of the Democratic- Republicans in the 1800 election. "THE REVOLUTION OF 1800," as Jefferson described his party's successful election many years later, was "as real a revolution in the principles of our government as that of 1776 was in its form."
To Jefferson and his supporters, the defeat of the Federalists ended their attempt to lead America on a more conservative and less democratic course. Since the Federalists never again played a national political role after the defeat in 1800, it seems that most American voters of the era shared Jefferson's view....
Does anyone, besides me, find it very odd the current trend in nominations for the Trump White House are extremists. There are few that aren't billionaires.
Donald Trump has completely drank the Tea Party kool-aid. No lie. The ideology of the Tea Party is being instated to the Executive Branch of the USA. Donald Trump is rolling the path of the USA back further than the 1950s as "W" did. He is rolling the path of the country straight back to the beginning of the country.
The Tea Party is an extremist wing of the Republican Party. They believe the original documents of the USA are the only valid documents to the governance of the USA. The instillation of billionaires to the Executive Branch, Donald Trump is living the ideology that the wealthy should only have the power to run the country.
This insanity of the nominations of the Trump administration is not based in democracy or freedom. The nominations are based in an ideology that believes the only people that should vote in the USA are the wealthy. According to the Tea Party the 'land owners' in 1800 were the wealthy. The loss of the election of 1800 is being reversed in the ideology of the Trump administration. It is about as demented as a modern day administration can get.
