And we could go fetch our leaders from yesteryears to let them see how our society and technology has evolved from their time then return them to their own time, what, if anything do you think they’d do with this knowledge?

Probably figure out what to do to shut down frivolous lawsuits much quicker.

Ben Franklin would start the largest strip club in Philly.

Jackson would superkill the central bank!

This is going to sound terribly unsympathetic and anti-Semitic…
But the best thing that could’ve been done is to ensure that George Soros did not survive the holocaust.

The founding fathers would expressly forbid slavery in the constitution

And expressly forbid women’s suffrage.

The Constitution of the United States is a fantastic document that modeled the first and absolute best system to ever govern any nation on this planet. If people would ever take an effort to actually learn what this document afforded it’s
citizens in comparison to any other government in existense before or hence, they would be awed.
The one and only flaw in the blueprint of our government is the absence of term limits. I’m not casting blame, most men didn’t live 45 years, much less serve in office that long. Of course if was easy for Congress to amend this for one individual, but for themselves?? Hell no. Allowing people to stay in Congress and in power inmoderatis is why we are where we are. We have too many congressmen who put their own personal enrichment above the betterment of our nation, and that is why we’re in this mess.
So, to the OP, if we could time travel, we’d tell the founding fathers to write term limits for Congress and the Pres into the Constitution.

Things that would horrify the couch-fainting leftists who probably get retconned out of existence.

There’s a book like this
quote:
Have you ever wanted to change one thing in history? Of course you have. Now, imagine you were changing history - not for yourself - but for America!
T.R.Hendrick's new book titled What If They Knew is changing America by asking the questions you want answered.
Follow Dr. Carver Benton as he explores his only wish: to have the signers of the Constitution shore up the words that future legislators have manipulated away from their original intent.
Is this possible? It is, for a team of scientists and historians when they bring a handful of our nation's builders to the year 2025 by secretly creating the world's most dangerous tool: time travel.
Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and a few others marvel at what history has produced. Spending several months in classrooms, they learn how the following two centuries have played out. From silent movies to IMAX theaters and horse-drawn buggies to massive airplanes.
Then, gaining first hand experience on the streets, they breathe in how their American experiment has turned out, which includes the polarity of our failing political system of today! Emotions erupt in nearly every way!
Ultimately, they must return to their own time before the constitution is signed. What will history show America once they go back? Will they succeed in rewriting history? What happens if they fail?
