No. AOC and Trump are outliers on either end of the spectrum.

But as a whole the difference between how Democratics and Republicans do politics is nothing more they semantics.

Lobby money, bribery, insider trading, sexual scandal political controversy work just the same on either side of the aisle.

At one point during the election, they were trying to make a big deal over the sheer number of republicans criminals who thought they were above the law, while democrats were the first ones to bring democrats to justice

Insider trading is a bit different since it’s legal. Yeah most from both parties do it and don’t even realize how unethical it is, but fwiw they made it legal

So, you find the outlier you like and help them.

Agreed. If and when AOC runs for president she has my vote.
