Well, a picture plus a few words, anyway.

Scooter, can you give a source for this picture? I would like to share it with other 'Christian Voters' and do it with proper recognition of the artist.

I saw a credit for a David W Sanders on Twitter (to which I don't belong). And another gave credit as "via Tim Troxler on Facebook"
I kinda like the cartoon but once again am not thrilled at the blanket condemnation of "Christian Voters"
My wife and I are both Christians and we know many others who, like us, voted for Biden and argued with Trumpanzees using the very arguments that inform this cartoon. The wooden carrot re abortion blinded so many (yes) people who claim the name of Christ to the utter evil of Trump and his lackeys. But I doubt the majority of Christians voted for him. Right Big RR? CP?
Despite believing myself to be an evangelical Christian, I'd feel better if the ass (oh sorry, horse) was identified as Evangelicals.
I could be wrong

I don't know. It traces back to a
Facebook post from two years ago, and in the comments someone claims to have determined that the artist is David Michael Slater by linking to
his Pinterest page, but that's just a collection of Bizarro comics he has saved, so that doesn't make sense. I've tried doing a search on editorial cartoonists with the initials DMS and come up with nothing.

I can’t find it either, and I don’t think it’s the David W. Sanders referenced by someone because his other work is very different and he signs his other work David Sanders, not ~dms (which isn’t even the right middle initial).
Mysterious!

Can anybody tell me what is written on what appears to be a bundle of dynamite sticks and the axe on the side of the wagon? I can't enlarge the image without the text getting too blurry to read.

Got it. And the bundle of dynamite sticks reads "fracking".
Did a little digging and found a better (sharper) image elsewhere.
