I Am the President. Who Am I Afraid Of?

Levi, a graduate of the 21st century history department, accidentally traveled through time, and his soul occupied the body of John Adams, the second president of the United States, in late 1798, at the time of the crisis of quasi-war between the United States and France. After struggling to adapt to his new identity, initially dealing with the temptation of his wife Abigail and the pressure from the Hamilton faction in the cabinet (Pickering, Walcott, etc.) To declare war on France, Levi (Adams) became acutely aware of the deadly yellow fever outbreak in Philadelphia. Relying on medical knowledge that was ahead of his time, Levi placed epidemic prevention at a very high priority and pushed for large-scale environmental cleanup, especially the removal of stagnant water, a breeding ground for mosquitoes. This move was regarded as "abnormal." This not only encountered bureaucratic resistance at the implementation level, but was also exploited by Hamiltonian political opponents led by Walcott, Sedgwick, and Harper. They questioned the president's mental state and ability to govern, spread rumors through the media, and portrayed epidemic prevention as a "big fuss" to avoid being tough on the law and wasting people and money in an attempt to shake his authority.
