Washington continually supported Hamilton's vision for the government and economic/financial policies and programs as they were both Federalists. Jefferson was frustrated about this an asked to resign his post. Washington agreed. Jefferson then went and formed the anti-Federalist party, the first organized party in America.

Did Alexander Hamilton help found the Federalist Party
Was Thomas Jefferson and Republican or federalist?
(The actual group to which Jefferson belonged was the anti-Federalists. The party he helped found was the "Democratic-Republicans", one faction of which became the Democratic Party, and the other the Whigs. )Thomas Jefferson was neither Republican nor Democrat because the political platforms of these two parties would not have stood a chance in his time. The two parties have been hopelessly authoritarian and unworkable, and they would have been in his time. He was effectively a liberal, secular humanist, which would be closer, in today's world, to the Democratic Party.Perhaps this will helpJefferson can be described as an anti-Federalist, while Hamilton was a Federalist. Jefferson believed in a small but powerful peacetime navy, no peacetime army, and minimal government intrusion in people's lives. If Jefferson were alive today, he would most likely be a Libertarian.Jefferson was not a Republican or Democrat in the modern sense.Both parties have changed significantly since the founding of the U.S. Jefferson and his followers favored states' rights and a strict interpretation of the Constitution, which Republicans support today, but Jefferson also favored economic policies that benefited the working class and disapproved of policies that benefited wealthy merchants and bankers, which Democrats support today. Jefferson also believed that a powerful central government and military posed a threat to individual liberties, which is a blend of what Democrats and Republicans believe today, since Republicans oppose a powerful centralized government but support a powerful federal military and the restriction of civil liberties including bans against Gay marriage, abortion and medical marijuana-while Democrats support a centralized government but oppose an aggressive military foreign policy and government laws that restrict civil liberties.
