Two germane #quotes from #GeorgeWashington’s Farewell Address to the People of the United States, 19 Sep 1796 (he warned us)…
"However [political parties] may now & then answer popular ends, they are likely in the course of time & things to become potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious, & unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people & to usurp for themselves the reins of government, destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion."
