Which president sacrificed his popularity to keep the country out of the war between France and England in the late 1700s?

President George Washington sacrificed his popularity to keep the United States out of the war between France and England in the late 1700s. By issuing the Neutrality Proclamation in 1793, he emphasized the importance of avoiding entanglement in foreign conflicts, despite facing criticism from those who favored supporting France. Washington's decision ultimately laid the groundwork for a foreign policy of neutrality that influenced U.S. relations for years to come.
