I do think they’d be genuinely horrified at the power of the federal government, since that seemed to be a major concern for them.
Sure. That was the reason for the big initial split into a two party system.
Jefferson/Madison wanted weak federal government and Adams/Hamilton wanted a strong central government.
And never the two shall meet. (Both sides claimed it would be the end of the world if the other side ever gained power.)
