Gallup. On December 17, 2020, Gallup polling found that 31% of Americans identified as Democrats, 25% identified as Republican, and 41% as Independent.

There is no majority consensus. However, if we wish to pretend that numbers and percentages matter here beyond the one poll that does matter in November. I would ask why then do we see this discrepancy between political party identification and the party make up of American Congress.

Currently out of 535 seats available for both houses of Congress. Only three senators have an independent party affiliation. Which is less than 1% of the total seats available. Whereas combined republicans and democrats together only represent about 56% of the US population. Control virtually 99% of Congressional positions. A huge disparity.

If you wish to claim that because republicans only represent 25% of the population and are therefore not representative of American majority values. I wish to counter that by saying that the same argument rings true for the Democratic party despite having a slight numerical edge over the republicans.

Therefore it seems bizarre and blatantly partisan to insinuate that KKK Republicans and Christians are all equivalent. When it is wholly incongruent with the statistical makeup of the United States. The arguments with Christianity even more bizzare as that is the one group mentioned that is a majority position of the US population.

Therefore your argument is without any merit. It is merely a partisan jab designed to play at people's preconceptions and stereotypes of political expression in order to bolster partisan support.

In other words you are ignoring objective reality and taking advantage of bigotry to further a political goal. Which is I suppose what you'd argue your opponent is doing.

In reality the positions of either major party plan into a bipartisan political dynamic that encourages the amplification of extremist voices and positions in both parties to gain a sufficient voter base of both zealous and zealously opposed individuals on both and all ends of the "political spectrum" in order to gain enough seats to form a government.

Basically. The majority interests are less important to the election results than being the least undesirable candidate. As long as people dislike the other guy more you can win even if you yourself are also unpopular.

We say elections are a popularity contest, that is often true. But American elections specifically oftentimes simply boil down into being an unpopularity contest.
