I keep both the federalist papers, and the antifederalist papers on my bookshelf. I bought them when Trump was elected because I wanted to see whether the founders thought that there was something in the system that would protect us if a morally bankrupt person took hold the executive branch. Unfortunately, many of the federalists thought we could obviously prevent that from happening, while many of the antifederalists thought that tyrants would become the norm immediately. They're a fun to flip through, as some of the predictions almost read like alternate history fictions, because they're just so wild. One essay I found particularly amusing (wish I could remember which paper said it), argued that the complexity of the legislative branch was clearly intended to to create endless demand for lawyers, thus ensuring that the lawyer career path would be prestigious and well-paid forever.
