Answer:

Adams quickly became identified with the patriot cause, initially as the result of his opposition to the Stamp Act of 1765.

Adams was also blamed both for actions he took during his term in office and for a supposed turn in political philosophy to favor aristocracy and monarchy over republicanism and democracy due to his opposition to the French Revolution.
