What you’re looking at

This is a satirical cartoon about Democratic Party internal conflict. The setting is a "Direct Line Democratic Convention" headquarters, where party figures appear to be in chaos or fighting. The central caricatured figure labeled "MALICE" (a donkey, the Democratic symbol) is depicted in an aggressive, chaotic state amid party representatives. Various labels visible include references to discord and division within the party. The cartoon's title, "THERE'S A-GOIN' TO BE," suggests impending turmoil or confrontation. This appears to satirize Democratic infighting, possibly during a convention period when factional disputes threatened party unity. Without clearer identification of specific individuals or the exact date, I cannot definitively name which Democratic figures or historical moment is being lampooned, though the imagery clearly critiques the party's internal strife and dysfunction.
