T hanks for the Post.

The writing style caused me to put this Federalist into the “I write like” analyzer.

Result:

HP Lovecraft!

Wiki says, “Lovecraft’s guiding literary principle was what he termed “cosmicism” or “cosmic horror”, the idea that life is incomprehensible to human minds and that the universe is fundamentally alien. Those who genuinely reason, like his protagonists, gamble with sanity.”

Hamilton being realistic about this, and why or why not?

I think Hamilton overrates himself and his arguments are not very compelling. Talking about all these indirect means of curtailing power seems to me to be just simple arguing.
