Yeah. The framers of the Constitution really didn’t have any experience in how political parties outside of the loyalist/patriot movements of the legislatures they came from. Even outside the US, there wasn’t that much experience in how democratic governments generally create political parties; even the UK was in the throws of a century old Whig oligarchy.
A lot of the checks and balances written into the Constitution relied on each politician having a major degree of independence from each other. That political parties formed and that the system only had two big tent parties broke a lot of Congressional power.
Impeachment is the way but that requires a bipartisan or super majority decision in congress.
