Question

Do you think George Washington's warnings about the political parties being destructive are still related to they give specific examples to support your response

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

George Washington warned against the formation of political parties, but their formation is inevitable.

For instance, shortly after the end of his leadership, they formed almost immediately: the Federalist Party and the Democratic-Republican Party.

However, the parties tend to be destructive, like the Democratic party of the 19th century who wanted to secede from the Union. While it could not have been the entire party who wanted to secede, it was definitely a party whose platform was pro slavery. They fought a war with the North in the Civil War. Thus, these parties caused destruction.

Furthermore, the Republican party today has seen extreme ideology that hosted the assault on the capitol in January 6, 2021. Thus, political parties tend to still be destructive.
