You can do one I was looking into. It's about the "Fall of Thomas Jefferson" in 1781 after his resignation from the Virginia Governorship, where in OTL he had commendation by the Virginian legislature and there special panel to look into Jefferson's term as Governor. In TTL, the opposite occurs and Jefferson is bombasted and berated. Jefferson would be forever embittered and would be "damaged goods", never again running for office and pining away in his home until his death from liver failure years later.
This would open up a totally different events, some would be completely different diplomacy as no Jefferson for the position of Ambassador to France. Another would be without Jefferson championing of an "American Dollar" the pound is adopted instead. Without Jefferson in the Washington cabinet, Hamilton could be more freely to do so as he wished and anything close to the Democrat-Republicans may have taken longer to form, leading to a more unchecked Federalist Party, allowing some possibilities of authoritarian shades to leak into American politics.
