The day we find out all the answers to the burning Trivia questions. OK next week easy ones only. We all learn new things each week. Here we go -
1. Why is the Republican symbol an elephant and the symbol of the Democratic party a donkey?
𝐀𝐧𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐫:
The Donkey
The donkey first appeared within the U.S. political lexicon during Andrew Jackson’s first presidential campaign in 1828. Jackson, who ran as a Democrat during the election—following the split between Jackson and the Democratic-Republican party—was referred to by his opponents as a “jackass” for his stubbornness and as a play on the similarity between “Jackson” and “jackass.” To the chagrin of his opponents, Jackson embraced the symbol of the donkey for its steadfast, determined, and willful nature as a symbol of his campaign.
The Elephant
The elephant first appeared in 1864—ten years after the establishment of the modern Republican party in an image in the newspaper, Father Abraham, in support of Republican President Abraham Lincoln. The image depicts a charging elephant and displays Union Army Civil War victories in various states. The elephant was chosen to reflect the term, “seeing the elephant,” which was used commonly amongst Union Army soldiers and meant to engage in combat.
2. Named "Rebecca," what unusual pet shared the White House with Calvin Coolidge and First Lady Grace Coolidge?
𝐀𝐧𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐫:A raccoon named Rebecca was the unusual pet that shared the White House with President Calvin and First Lady Grace Coolidge. Originally sent to the White House as a Thanksgiving dinner contribution in 1926, the Coolidges kept her as a pet instead. Rebecca was given a special house and often participated in White House events.
3. According to George H.W. Bush, the ghost of which U.S. president was rumored to haunt the White House?
𝐀𝐧𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐫:According to a joke George H.W. Bush told to a group of schoolchildren, the ghost rumored to haunt the White House was Abraham Lincoln. Bush humorously claimed the ghost was always rumored to be there. The 16th president is the most frequently cited ghost at the White House, with sightings reported by various presidents and dignitaries
4. Which U.S. president went by the nickname "Dutch?"
𝐀𝐧𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐫: Ronald Reagan was the U.S. president who went by the nickname "Dutch". His father gave him the nickname as a child because he thought his son looked like a "fat little Dutchman". The nickname stuck with him for most of his life.
5. Which U.S. president taught law at the University of Arkansas?
𝐀𝐧𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐫: Bill Clinton
And there you have it. I love the racoon 🦝 one! who would've THUNK. LOL Thank you all for playing along. Next week it will all be on Wednesday as we are off on Tuesday. Trivia in the morning, and answers posted in the afternoon.
