Answer 2

Answer: d.He supported the French, believing that they were fighting for democracy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jefferson's opinion on the Napoleonic Wars were sustained by his philosophical and political ideas. He understood that a liberal triumph in Europe would reinforce popular government in the United States in opposition to the efforts of the hamiltonians to place a form of government based on the British system. The establishment of the French Republic had already bolstered his defense of the independence of America and France.
