With regard to Trump this was quite true. democrats and republicans set aside their differences to defeat their common enemy, who was the closest we have had to actual representation in our government in a very long time. So while I disagree that dems and reps are the same party, I do agree they both needed to take US out of the political equation and while the dems wanted to do it by impeachment, the GOP was content to let it happen by a rigged election.
