The correct answer is C) did not support a war with France.
During his presidency, John Adams did not support a war with France.
John Adams took office in 1797. One of the issues he faced as a president concerned France. Half of the US population supported the French Revolution but the other half, don't. Federalists, led by Alexander Hamilton, did not approve the French Revolution and the idea that people killed the king of France and wanted to ally with Britain, despite France had helped America to defeat the British troops in the Revolutionary War. But President Adams knew how to handle the situation even with the "XYZ Affair."
