An example is the general movement by both the Republican and Democratic parties in the United States to continually expand the size and reach of the Federal government into every area of one's life, the only significant difference being whether the apparatus should be run by [[Unionism|unionized]] government employees (the [[Democrat Party]] approach) or private-sector contractors (the [[Republican Party]] approach). '''''Specific Republican examples of the uniparty are Republican Senate Leader [[Mitch McConnell]] and House Speaker [[Mike Johnson]], as of May 2024'''''.

The uniparty should not be confused with [[bipartisanship]], as the latter views working together as a means to an end, while the uniparty sees different political parties working together as the end in-and-of itself. The uniparty, representing both the Democrat and Republican [[establishment]]s, constituted the core [[NeverTrump]] opposition to a [[populist]] revolt. Hence the uniparty has wide access to [[judicial]], party, and [[media]] resources to attack its opposition.
