The Democratic Party's symbol, the donkey, originated in the 19th century during Andrew Jackson's presidential campaign in 1828. Opponents labeled him a "jackass" for his populist approach, but Jackson embraced the donkey as a symbol of strength and determination. Over time, the donkey became associated with the Democratic Party, solidified by political cartoonists like Thomas Nast in the 1870s, who popularized its use in media.
