The symbol of the Democratic Party was once the donkey.
Today, no donkey on the DNC website.
You won’t find one on the Missouri Democratic Party’s website but you will find… cows.
No donkey on the St. Louis City Dems website, not much of anything on there. There is a donkey on the Jackson County Democrats logo tho.
Why isn’t every Democratic Party organization from national committee to township/ward organization using the donkey? Put aside, for the moment, the history of the donkey as symbol of Democrats, why is it that Democrats are now represented by a boring corporate logo D in a circle?
Democrats should return to the donkey. Not a cute donkey. A kick ass donkey.
Real donkeys fiercely defend themselves and their own. Donkeys will adopt other animals and defend them, will beat and drag a predator hunting an animal under their protection. That’s the inspirational symbol needed by the Democratic Party.
Sure. Sure. Sure. I know there are issues with donkeys as guard animals and you need to keep the family dog away unless it was reared with a baby donkey. But no one denies they defend territory by any means necessary.
We need Democrats to be guardians of the people, not corporations loyal only to profit.
The country does not need an uninspiring status quo Democratic Party. If you want to lean to the right, join MAGA.
I don’t care that rebranding the Democratic Party with the donkey is symbolic. Rebuilding a party has to start somewhere and there should be a consensus by now that D in a circle is not selling like MAGA does for Trump Family & Friends Grift Inc.
Bring back the Democratic Party donkey. Let the party be fierce, once again.
