I think they would be surprised either that we still adhere to the Constitution (I.e., we haven’t replaced or rewritten it), or that there are so few amendments.

Washington: Oh, so y'all polarized the country into two separate parties when I specifically told you not to??
Adams: Didn't I tell y'all about that slavery bullshit?
Tommy Jefferson: How can anyone live in NYC?
Benji Frank: You can just fly to France like a bird while you sleep to dunk your oui oui?
This is stupidly accurate. Fucker.
How can anyone live in NYC?
Having read through accounts of Washington and Adams, it would seem that there was a very prevalent dislike of New York city in the colonies. They described NYC residents as lacking in decorum, which I still find fairly fitting today.
“What do you mean you might elect a black woman” is probably a big one they’ll be mad about. They weren’t good people
Realistically Franklin: "So the women of today bathe regularly, are shaven, are disease free, and can decide to be incapable of pregnancy, and I can search for them easily in every city?!"
Jefferson: "You centralized the banks?!"
I think they would say, "what's this I hear about women voting? and, uh, who was that in the White House from 2012-2020?? was that one of Thomas Jefferson's grandchildren?"
You let the supreme court say that the president is above the law!?!
Washington: "Wait, all my slaves are free?!? I can't just keep moving them every 5 months to keep them from their freedom?"
