Washington was the American Cincinnatus, you dickless tranny. he saw us through 2 (really 3) crises in the revolution, the switch from the articles of confederation to the constitution and the political infighting that happened right after the switch. served 2 terms, did not take the title of king, did not seek a third term and then retired to his farm. you shit eating retard

>>18133015
Cincinnatus is 1 possibly 2 roman generals who retired, became a farmer, was named dictator during a crisis, solved the crisis in like 2 weeks and then left to go back to his farm

>if he wanted to be named king they would have named him king
Is that based on some historic event?
>>
>>18133020
I'll take that as a yes
good talk
>>
>>18133024
they were literally debating what the title of president should be and if it should be hereditary. a decent number of the founders wanted it to be king and Washington said
>I did not fight King George the third to become King George the first
it was also a foregone conclusion that Washington would be the first president and that when they were deciding the position in the constitution it was literally for him. the also added the natural born clause to fuck over Hamilton specifically, which is funny

>guyz look at me plz look how humble and modest I am plz acknowledge me

>incorrect
Adams almost won and you'd know this if you actually gave a fuck and weren't in it out of spite for your physical and spiritual ancestors in europ
>>
>>18134288
>Adams almost won
Washington got twice as many votes as Adams and Adams only got as many as he did due to the
>2nd place gets the VP
thing, retardo
>>
>>18134330
John adams actually did almost win 1788
everyone wanted washington to win, even adams himself, but due to southern and northern federalist infighting and antifederalist scheming to give it to adams
it was not a foregone conclusion by every metric; although it was pretty assured.
so there. whos the retardo now insert smugpepe.jpg
>>
>>18134361
Washington got every EC vote. adams got half as many
>>
>>18134364
No shit. and like i said, this was only due to last minute polticial hyjincks during autumn 1788 behind closed federalist doors for electors to throw their votes so the antifeds couldn't get adams.
>>
>>18134387
when they were writing the constitution they were writing it with the plan that Washington would be president and the only reason Adams was even a thought was due to the possibility of the anti federalists fucking it up either intentionally or accidently, which didn't happen
>>
>>18132968
>The American Cincinnatus
If he really was so great you'd think Cincinnatus would be called the American Washington, and not the other way around.
>>
>>18133013
If he'd tried to become king Hamilton would have fallen to his knees climaxing since he was a crypto-monarchist.
>>
>>18134402
>due to the possibility of the anti federalists fucking it up either intentionally or accidently
Thus, not foregone.
