It is true that the way that President Ulysses S. Grant ran his cabinet, in a military style rather than civilian, contributed too many scandals in his administration.

Answer: Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

President Ulysses S. Grant ran his government in a military style and he followed “Grantism” where more than 40 members in his family where in the government assigned job. Corruption was found everywhere in military, navy, Treasury absolutely everything.

He never consulted the cabinet members. He laid his trust on people who were very close to him, though they were found guilty with proof he did not dare to punish them of treason. Trusting hearts was his weakness.

He was an educated man but lacked the heart to accept the new industrialization and economic growth. He lent his ear only to his military friend and ran his cabinet in military style. To attain illicit financial gain many scandals were done.
