Do you even Hamilton, bro?
He wanted to make to Washington king.
Also, Adams wanted to make the executive branch hereditary. Kind of like a monarchy.
Hamilton wrote part of that thing, I think it was called the Federalist Papers.....so he was pretty important with the whole "founding fathers/ framers" kind of thing.

Were Hamilton's views on governance ultimately rejected or accepted ? In other words, did the President become King?
If the answer is "No", then, perhaps you should consider that Alexander Hamilton is not the most important "idea man" amongst our early thinkers on governance.
As for John Adams's idea about the hereditary Executive Branch, it's clear that this idea was also soundly rejected.
ON a more important note: I would like to give praise to this thread. It's important for us to analyze and understand this topic.
