Use the political cartoon by Thomas Nast above to answer the following question. What does the cartoon suggest about William Tweed's control over New York City?
Tweed was a New York City politician who led a group of corrupt politicians I recently remember reading about him. he was terrible ! what are the options?
I have to answer it in a complete sentence
oh, it's a summary kind of question?
yep
William Tweed oppressed the citizens of New York. He was a corrupt politician who took bribes in order to further his own political career.
okay, well t hand is obBoss Tweeds hand, he basically dominated the government. he was really corrupt and kept the money for himself and a few of his government buddies. let me find you a few very informal links.
