Lamont Wilkinson · Answer 1

False.

Explanation:

The tone and wording of the Thomas Jefferson's inaugural address was balanced and conciliatory. He wanted to send a signal to his political rivals, he wanted to show himself as a statesman above partisan divisions, a president of all Americans. He intended to look presidential and his language reflects a search and a hope for unity. "We are all republicans, we are federalists." He was the Republican leader and his fiercest opponents were the Federalists.
