the best way ive heard the Democratic and Republican Parties described is that the Democrats are capital and labor and the Republicans are "everyone else"
You could also describe it as the bourgeois and the proletariat against the lumpenproletariat. Especially the culture wars are really like that, with especially the likes of Vance trying to double down on it.

nah. the GOP is very representative of small landholders, the petite bourgeoisie, and owner operators. the idea that the Republicans have a mass base of reactionary proletarians who vote for them is largely mythical, the left is still representative of everything u can assign as large capital to proletarians and what could be described as "the lumpen". blue collar, white collar and yellow collar (service workers, this term is used very rarely) alike, even after education polarization.
They are a whole other class

grr i hate the populist movement
Just as in the anti-imperialism of the League, the settler-Afrikan coalition of the Populists had nothing to do with any real unity of settlers with the oppressed. Rather, these poor but still-privileged settlers were tactically maneuvering to improve their position relative to the monopoly capitalists - and recruiting Afrikans to give their settler party a boost. Historian Michael Rogin points out: "Populism, however, was a movement of the farmowning proprietors, not property-less workers. It attempted to reassert local community control against the economic and political centralization of corporate capital ..."
