Never mind the fact that US policis has basically devolved into the equivelant of a contest between fans of different football teams, regardless of what those teams policies actually are.

There are only two real factions in American politics.
Those who honestly believe that their party's platform will bring about prosperity and freedom for all,and those who cynically manipulate and use the former to maximize their own personal power and wealth.
We call the first group "voters", and the second "politicians".
