Why was Washington the first president?

Explanation:

"Mr. President" is the address that George Washington chose for himself, instead of the lengthy titles and many other sounds, like the common name in the world at that time. Historical researchers assess (whether biased or not): Washington knows that everything he does will set precedents, so he tries his best to avoid the colors of feudal monarchy. Europe, but all must be appropriate to the republic, from dress, language to behavior.

There is a story that is still told: The first Congress of the United States proposed to pay the president of Washington $25,000 a year. At first, he refused. At that time, he was very rich. He was the owner of vast plantations. In other words, as a model of Donald Trump, in modern terms, George Washington is a tycoon. A billionaire. Therefore, he does not feel the need to be paid, when he wants to maintain an image of a disinterested "public servant". However, then Washington thought back, when persuaded by Congress not to set a precedent that the position of President of the United States would only be reserved for wealthy and financially independent individuals, to the extent that can serve wholeheartedly without remuneration. It can be believed that when he declared "no need to be paid" when he was elected, Donald Trump was influenced by this story.

In domestic affairs, perhaps up to the present time, there will never be another president who will succeed in a neutral and objective position like George Washington. Neither "Democrat", nor "Republican", then he was an independent president, not affiliated with any political party. He even wished that no political parties were formed, lest partisan conflicts would erode the values of the republic. This, up to now, has always been proven with the methods of "tipping the wheel" with each other on the American political scene.
