Answer:

The answer is option B They labeled them as "crooks, thieves, and robbers”

Step-by-step explanation:

Throughout the entire existence of the US, carpetbagger was an injurious term applied by previous Confederates to Northerners who went toward the Southern states after the American Common War; they were seen as misusing the neighborhood people. The term extensively included the two people who looked to advance conservative governmental issues (counting the privilege of African Americans to vote and hold office), and people who saw business and political open doors in light of the disorderly condition of the neighborhood economies following the war. Practically speaking, the term carpetbagger was frequently applied to any Northerner who was available in the South during the Recreation Period (1863–1877).

The term is firmly connected with "scalawag", an also derisive word used to depict local White Southerners who upheld the Conservative Alliance drove Recreation.

White Southerners usually decried "carpetbaggers" on the whole during the post-war years, dreading they would plunder a lot the vanquished South and be politically aligned with the Radical Republican.
