Liberal cartoonist Nick Anderson, whose recent cartoons include depicting Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, D-Ariz., being sold at auction, produced the work.

Fox News contributor Joe Concha called it “political suicide” to “make parents the enemy,” while fellow contributor Guy Benson said the “contempt is real and it is deep.”

“What would Democrats do differently if they were deliberately trying to show utter contempt for parental rights?” writer Mark Hemingway asked.
