Question

Is this paragraph true or false?

President Harding appointed unqualified friends to government offices and failed to exercise his authority over them. His friends and appointees stole government oil reserves and took bribes from businesses and criminals. These scandalous acts damaged Harding's administration. im thinking it is true

Answer 1

The statement is true. They were known as the "Ohio Gang". This group of politicians owed their name to the fact that most of them had entered politics during Harding's tenure as governor of that state.

During his government, these people began to acquire public positions based not on their suitability or wisdom in the matter, but on the friendship or knowledge they had with President Harding, clearly dealing with a case of cronyism in the public administration.
