If you could change the partys mascot, what would you pick?

Since it feels like we're definitely in a kind of transition place in spacetime anyway, maybe that's a thing that should happen?

I'd go with a Rabbit. The memes (and the political cartoons) kinda write themselves I think.

We are in the new year and the year of the Fiery Horse. Haven't been there since 1966, I believe. I lived through the 60's with the element of change and correction. I'll gladly live through that course again to rid the world of Trump.

My second would be the honey badger from a previous reply. They’re wicked fierce, like I wish our party would be.
