The snapping turtle represents the embargo act of 1807. What does the man with the barrel represent? What is he trying to do?

The Embargo Act of 1807 stated that American ships could not carry cargo to foreign ports and that foreign ships could not load cargo in American ports. This political cartoon published during the embargo criticizes the act. "Ograbme" is "embargo" spelled backward.

me on my last question.

probably that america is racist
