FDR the Donkey Collector

This donkey statuette was given to Franklin Roosevelt in August 1934 by the sculptor, Madeleine Park of Katonah, NY. Madeleine Park (1891 - 1960) was a New York sculptor specializing in animal art and was known for working with live subjects. FDR displayed the statuette on a side table in the White House Oval Office.

A Horrible Possibility - Of a successful Bryan campaign.

September 22, 1907

A factory turns out 'Billy Donk', a donkey toy that a score of young girls hug or drag around. A weeping child stands in the background with a Teddy Bear.

The header reads "THE INTRODUCTION OF THE 'BILLY DONK.'

When Roosevelt had become president, the Teddy Bear was introduced soon after. Bryan's emblematic animal was the Democratic Donkey.

iirc 19th century German-American cartoonist Thomas Nast created (or at least was a major influence) on our image of Santa Claus. Here's an illustration of Santa that he did in 1881:

Since we're getting into "did you know that Santa's eight tiny reindeer are a reference to the eight legs of Odin's steed?" season once again, remember: while there are some elements of Christmas (or Hallowe'en, or Easter, or...) observations that are probably pre-Christian in origin, before one believes any of that this-is-really-100%-just-a-Pagan-holiday-with-the-serial-numbers-filed-off stuff, one must consider all of the following possibilities:

Our earliest known records of the cited pre-Christian practices were written down by some random Christian monk centuries after the fact, and we genuinely have no idea how accurate this account is, to what extent the apparent similarities with Christian practice are due to the author deliberately or unwittingly putting a Christian spin on it, or indeed, whether they were just making shit up.

The similarities between the two sets of practices have been exaggerated or misrepresented by Christian writers who were bent for prefiguration theology (i.e., the idea that the Bible echoes backwards in time and pre-Christian religious practices were unwittingly imitating future Christian practices).

The similarities between the two sets of practices have been exaggerated or misrepresented by Protestant writers who believe that all Pagan deities are Satan in disguise, so they think that if they can prove that Catholic practices are secretly Pagan in origin, that proves that Catholics are secretly Satanists.

The similarities between the two sets of practices have been exaggerated or misrepresented by overzealous mythographers trying to prove that all mythology and religion throughout all of human history is secretly a single unified monomyth; if it's pre-Victorian, expect shades of prefiguration theology, while if it's post-Victorian, expect a lot of stuff about the Collective Unconscious.

A bunch of 19th Century proto-Fascists were trying to construct a pre-Jewish cultural identity (and considered Christianity to be tainted by association), but didn't want to give up any of the fun rituals, so they made some shit up about how it was still okay to do Christmas because something something Odin, or whatever.

A bunch of early 20th Century Pagan reconstructionists filled in the gaps in their understanding of pre-Christian ritual with culturally Christian assumptions, then turned around and pointed at their own accidentally Christianised reconstructions as evidence that Christian practices are derived from them.

A bunch of late 20th Century self-help manual authors tried to break into the occult bookstore market by uncritically repeating any or all of the above.

Someone on the Internet just made it up.

First, let me reiterate that I Never believed The Leftist Liberal White House, Polls, News, Media and Democrat Party LYING about Kamala being tied, much less ahead of #PresidentTrump❗️🧐🙏🇺🇸#REBTD😇

Secondly, i know that The Truth eventually is revealed and consequently the Liars too‼️ 😱

This here is the donkey symbol of the Democratic Party, and just like the party itself, it is also, emotionally and mentally, badly wounded; the donkey lies in this hospital bed, at this time weak and sick. My heart is broken for the poor donkey, and well as my heart aches for him, that he has gone through so much torture while fighting for our rights and freedoms against the cruel MAGA Republicans. And now, I believe, this poor, little donkey is fighting for his life, without any knowledge of how long he will pull through. I hope that those of us who have stood by for this donkey will care enough to tend to him and to take very good care of him, so that he would be strong and well enough to fight again. With ♥️-JW
