Liberals tried to co-opt the spirit of Alexander Hamilton. He'd want to make America great again, again though.

Hamilton was extremely conservative. I don't see how this is news.

By the standards / precedents of the day I'd argue he was pretty liberal.

Of course you do but Hamilton was a leading federalist and the liberal founders the antifederalists. Jefferson famously despised him.

Jefferson famously despised everyone. He put his VP on trial for treason, which carried a death penalty. :lol

Read his biography. Don't even remember anything much on the religious front. He wasn't a hardliner if he was.

Stories were circulated that Hamilton had made two quips about God at the time of the Constitutional Convention in 1787. During the French Revolution, he displayed a utilitarian approach to using religion for political ends, such as by maligning Jefferson as "the atheist," and insisting that Christianity and Jeffersonian democracy were incompatible.

Looks like he was a Chris kind of Christian, tbh...

Jefferson was the Obama Christian of his time in effect. Not in actuality, as he did read the Bible and ponder on its meaning.

Terrorists for what? IIRC, Jefferson was for the French and Hamilton was for England in terms of trade favorability.

He was one of the founding fathers, integral to the American Revolutionary War, and aide to General Washington.

Burr indicated a desire to get the western states at that time to secede. And he hardly despised everyone, mostly the federalists like Hamilton. Burr killed Hamilton btw.

NYP, Murdoch toilet paper

Secession was/is not a crime. Burr was acquitted.
