When was the first political party division in the US?
Thomas Jefferson once said that two people was a law firm and three a political party. My point is that from the very start of the nation political parties were divided. In 1789 there were the Federalist and the anti federalist. Washington warned that political parties were dangerous because they would only be concerned with reelection and maintaining power. He was right. So, the answer to your question is that there has always been fractions within the parties and they have become what we have today.

Why did the framers of the constitution not like political parties?
With political parties, people often vote for the party, not the politician. With political parties, you also have more "group think", which can result in laws being passed just because a political party is pushing it, and not so much because it is a good idea. When a political party gets the super majority, they pass laws as quickly as possibly in an effort to initiate their political ideals. This means that laws end up being passed without any real scrutiny. It causes an instability in the government, results in inefficient laws, laws that don't represent the people, and government waste.
How would the modern democrats be destructive to the federalist?
They wouldn't be, modern democratic ideals are the same as those of the federalist party. Both support a large government, taxes, and protective tariffs. Just look at the word "federalist" it has federal in it. Political parties change over time, however despite what today's republicans will say, today's democrats support the political goals of John Adams, Alexander Hamilton, and John Jay. George Washington was never associated with a party but he did share many of the federalist goals.
