1) Moderate Dems: Sherrod Brown, Amy Klobuchar (*for example)
2) Democratic Socialists: Sanders, Aoc (*)
3) Republicans/Conservatives: Justin Amash, Tim Scott (*)
4) trumpists/dixiecrats
I don't know if I would agree with the assessment of the Republican party because I think the divide in the Republican party is more of Establishment (content to be minority party) Republicans and Conservative new Republicans (for lack of coming up with a better name). Typical of the Establishment Republicans are those that many calls "the Swamp dwellers" or permanent politicians who I would say are represented by those like Romney, McCain, Bush's, Sen. Lisa Murkowski, Susan Collins, and a few others like former Arizona Senator Jeff Flake. Some are "never-Trumpers" while others are like Mitch McConnell who are just entrenched and content to exist either in the minority or majority.
Conservative new Republicans that are not willing to accept minority status and tend to be more aligned with the old Tea Party movement and are focused greatly on Religious Freedom, 2nd Amendment freedoms, etc, that turn out to be far more effective leaders. Some of them are like Lindsey Graham, Matt Gaetz, Mike Huckabee, and Jim Jordan among others. It's also interesting that some of these more effective and successful Republicans are former, disenchanted, Democrats who realized that the party that they were supporting was not actually representing typical American concerns and views. Consider one being President Trump and another Ronald Reagan. Even a majority of the Southern States which were staunchly and solidly Democrat in the 1950s and 1960s saw a Democratic party that was leaving them and being taken over.
I know what I have said is far too simplistic as there are more divisions within each party but if they were to be grouped into two sections I would choose the Left and far Left or liberal and Socialist for the Democrats and Establishment and Tea Party Republicans as Republicans are more moderate and conservative in nature.
