Lets also not forget that Thomas Jefferson was a real piece of work, even by the low standards of the US revolutionary elite: • Raped his slaves, then enslaved kids that resulted from those rapes • Tied to the above: actually managed to horrify french aristocrats. In one case when they noticed one of his slaves was clearly his kid. (Note that they had to get special permission to have slaves in the embassy in France) • Was Trump-levels of eager when it came to invading and conquering Canada before the war of 1812 and was a major player in starting that war.
