"Steal from the rich and give to the poor" would be a great motto

As seen in a Brilant piece of art work in this video:

6. Problem is...
...Its not like the party gets to really choose their mascot. The donkey and the elephant were never officially chosen by party leadership, they just kind of evolved out of editorial cartoons and stuck. The Democrats never made the donkey official, and while the Republicans eventually did make the elephant their mascot, they were really just accepting the inevitable, since if they tried to use some other animal there's no way that it would stick.

7. Save the Donkey!
He's a solid no nonsence working class beast.

In undeveloped country's he's the poor farmer's best friend. Lives on nothing, carries huge loads and is a pal to little kids. He's loyal and gentle but doesn't put up with any crap.

The current day Democrats could do alot worse than emulate the donkey.

8. A dog licking someone's boots
Would be appropriate, based on the last four years.

9. Whatever this is should be the new mascot.


Unless it's a jelly fish, which would have a stinger that might actually do some damage to an enemy.
