George Washington didn't like the idea of political parties. He called them "factions" and warned against them.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • George Washington in his farewell of Presidental address, advised American citizens that they should avoid political parties.
  • He also said them to view it as a cohesive unit. George Washington felt that political parties will bring many risks to the government.
  • He felt it will give power to the authority how as it and not to the people. It will not bring any benefits to the government and the country.
