Which best defines the term spoils system?
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

The correct answer is B) a system that allowed the winning political party to give jobs to supporters

Explanation:

A spoils system is where a winning political party or candidate gives favor to their supports by giving them key positions or jobs in the government. For, generations this was common practice in the United States.

However, things began to change in the 19th Century as the people protested and asked more for transparency.

By the mid-20th Century, there was a clear difference between politics and civil service jobs.

However, many believe the practice still remains today. A recent example was Trump giving key White House positions to supports like Brietbart co-founder Steve Bannon.

In countries like India and Bangladesh, this is still common place.
