I’d say both the parties are pretty capitalist. The repubs were interested in finding their challenger, they didn’t know who it would be yet. The dems, all the way down to the majority of voters, were interested in supporting their incumbent, not interested in a chaotic primary fight.

While the Republicans promote socialistic politics, giving candates universal basic airtime.
I get it now.

I think that’s still largely the case.
