The correct answer is B) he thought it would create division and bitter arguments.

Based on the passage, the statement that best expresses George Washington’s opinion on political parties is “he thought it would create division and bitter arguments.”

On his Farewell Address of 1796, George Washington clearly expressed his concerns about political parties. On the excerpt of the passage, we can read: “it agitates the community with ill-founded jealousies and false alarms, kindles the animosity of one part against the other, and foments occasionaly riot and insurrection…”

That is why Washington considered that political parties would create division and bitter arguments. And history has proven that his thoughts were true. Political parties are necessary for democracies but one of the questions the arise is exactly what Washington believed and expressed in his Farewell Adress.

The correct answer is B. George Washington's opinion on political parties was that they would create divisions and bitter arguments.

Explanation:

Washington was not an official member of any political party and he hoped that none would be formed, for fear of the conflicts and stagnation that would result. However, his closest advisers, Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson, formed two factions, laying the groundwork for the future party system.

In fact, in his Farewell Address, Washington warned against bitter partisanship in domestic politics and urged men to go beyond partisanship and serve the common good.
