The Americans were outraged. Chant began through out all states screaming 'not a cent for tribute but millions for war'! Congress expanded the army and began a small navy to fight French warships. War hawks of the south were strongly encouraging Adams to fight. Adams however thought of the future. Although his popularity would increase drastically if the United States were to lose the consequences would be severe.
Lucky for him the decision never had to be made. Napoleon took office shortly after the XYZ affair took over the government and made peace with the United States.
