One can tell it's an M1A1 by the circular mount for the commander's independent thermal viewer just forward of the loader's hatch. Old M1's didn't have the mounting, and newer M1A2's have the actual thermal viewer installed on the mounting.

Anyway, technical details aside, a lot of political cartoonists simply draw generic treads, a turret, and a gun, and call it a tank.

Nice to see some attention to detail.
