Answer:

D. The winning party gives the best jobs to its supporters.

Step-by-step explanation:

For an example, you could look at some of the appointments made under the current presidential administration. President Trump has given cabinet level appointments to supporters like Rick Perry and Ben Carson. He also recently appointed someone as Attorney General, Bill Bahrain, who had written a lengthy memo to the Justice Department arguing that the Special Counsel’s investigation concerning the President was going too far.

These are just examples from the current administration. Past administration have given spoils to their supporters also.
