5. How about "Wall Street Welfare Queen" for Loeffler?

Loeffler and other republican trash commit egregious acts that can't be summed up in one or two words. Call them capitalists and they would be cheered. Call her Marie Antoinette. I doubt the rubes would tie that to "Let them eat cake." She bribed Trump with a campaign contribution to call off the investigation into her stock trades. Her use of a tax loophole to buy a jet at taxpayers' expense most likely will go right over the rubes' heads. As long as they control legislation, there is not a lot of options.
The term fascist is another option but doesn't work in Loeffler's case.

too negative. Feed into the "both sides" thing. Accused of being the "I'm not Trump/We're not as bad as the Republicans" party, standing for nothing and having no message.

Bernie Sanders was absolutely consistently perfect with message repetition. Every single interview, TV appearance, town hall, rally, exactly the same message and buzzwords.
