I am not the origin of the incest thing.

Any balanced view of Hamilton would be “hagiographic” in your mind.

No. That would be, in all likelihood, Alexander Hamilton.

Any balanced view of Hamilton would be “hagiographic” in your mind.

The terms "balanced" and "hagiography" are one in the same to you. I say that because you literally attempted to excuse away Hamilton's salacious extramarital affair in which he literally BRIBED the husband to be able to sleep with his wife (you know, in most places that's known by another name in addition to adultery) by blaming it on a giant conspiracy by his political enemies. That's not just glossing over the warts, arrogant. That's borderline idolatry of the guy.

One need not tear down Hamilton to know that he was a very flawed though also highly capable man. Yet you seem incapable of conceding even the most obvious of those flaws, though you see nothing but the same in Jefferson.
