Edit: After reading so many responses, I’d like to clarify - what would Democratic and Republican VOTERS (not politicians) agree on?

More lobbying money and more ability to insider trade.

When the rich wage war, it’s the poor who die.

Never-ending war and funding of genocide.

They'll agree that the Democrats will do absolutely nothing while the Republicans rewrite every law to suit their desires.

Oh, voters? Most everything.

Studies seem to consistently show that Republicans are largely in favor of left leaning specific policies when presented as Republican ideas.

Democrat and Republican voters would probably agree on the president having to be a white male.

[-] jsomae@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 days ago

3 of the last 4 democrat presidential candidates were not white males.

Serious answer: Lots of safety and industrial regulations. Most of the criminal code. The nitty-gritty of tax law, although they'll massively disagree over the big picture.

If you go to the voters there's even more flexibility, because 90% of them haven't thought about 99.9% of issues before.

Mass easy unchecked access to high powered assault rifles.
