    If you think John Fetterman and Susan Collins are on opposite sides, why do they agree on so many votes?

      Personally, I think they’re both republicans.

      But what about if we compare AOC and Fetteman? Are they both the same? You see, it’s easy to manufacture the outcome of your point when you only allow examples that lend to it. Broaden the range even a little and it falls apart.

      Like your entire ideology.

        But they aren’t both Republicans.

          But they are. Or do you think a letter next to your name defines who you are?

            I think the party that nominated you and the party you caucus with define your membership in that party.

            After that, you might as well say Aaron Judge isn’t a Yankee because you don’t like his personality.
