  • The legislative and judicial branches are cut off. 
  • The executive branch is still attached to the tree. 
  • The man in the cartoon is dressed up like a cowboy with a chain saw in his hand.
  • The Legislative branch and the judicial branch are tied to the executive branch by a thin string/rope. 
I: 
  • Because I see that the executive branch is still attached to the tree, I think the only branch that the cowboy tolerates.
  • Because I see that the judicial and legislative branches are tied to the executive branch I think they need the executive branch to keep them from falling to the ground.
  • Because I see the cowboy with the chain saw I think he was the one who cut off the legislative and judicial branches.
C:
  • Because I see and think the cowboy with the chain saw cut off the legislative and judicial branches I think it means that he represents the common man wants to get rid of the judicial and legislative branches.
  • Because I see and think that the judicial and legislative branches are tied to the executive branch I think it means that they rely of the the executive branch to stay relevant in the government.
  • Because I see and think that that the executive branch is still attached to the tree, I think it means that it is either the strongest and most powerful branch or the only branch that the common man tolerates. 
  • I think the cartoon represents checks and balances.
