Answer:

This is because they had just won the American Revolution. The American Revolution was fought for many reasons against the British king. The revolutionaries fought against king George III and his troops. They had unlawful taxes, violation of rights, etc. These brave men fought against their king and became America. Our founding fathers did NOT want this is happen to America. This is why they did not trust the rule of kings.

Hope this helps!
