The correct answer is C) they wanted to return to a focus on peace Private Industry and prosperity

Explanation:

President Harding and his republicans had won the election in one of the largest margins in history. However, they inherited a country going through a tough depression just after the end of the World War I.

While, they did not openly regret to taking part in the first World War I, the party believed that it was the right time for the United States to look within rather than towards Europe.

They wanted to limit American interference in foreign affairs and instead focus on national peace, develop industry and bring back prosperity in the country. In a way, it was a policy of 'America-first'
