Answer:

Andrew Jackson was a strong president. He used the office to forcefully pursue his agenda. This cartoon is quite famous, coming out around 1833, because of the 1833 removal order. In the cartoon, the president can be seen holding a veto in his hand, and standing on top of the Constitution. He is dressed up as a king, holding - perhaps - too much power. I believe that the intended audience was the people. The people saw him as a king, abusing his powers as a president. The author’s purpose was to show how people truly viewed him. The president’s order to remove federal deposits from the Bank of the United States led to an increase in state debt. The President was strongly criticized because he acted without congressional approval, as a king would.

Incomplete question. The attached image completes the question.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image, we observe it is actually a cartoon from the year 1833 depicting Andrew Jackson who served as the seventh president of the United States. Because he was seen as a president wanting to be a dictator, the cartoon portrays him in a negative light.

For example, the author (or cartoonist) puts on Jackson's hand a scroll titled "VETO", representing his decision to veto Congress's bill to recharter the banks in 1832.

Also to showcase what the author sees as Jackson's disregard for the "Constitution of the United States of America" and the Internal Improvements U.S. Bank" they were positioned under his foot.

Finally, we can also see a book thrown on the ground with the titled "Judiciary of the U.States" indicating his lack of interest to consult or respect the judiciary of the United States.
