On this specific issue, it was the Obama FCC that made sure that ISPs couldn't sell this data, and it's the republican congress & president that rolled it back.

On this specific issue, it was the Obama FCC that made sure that ISPs couldn't sell this data, and it's the republican congress & president that rolled it back. So it's a pretty fair issue to point this difference out with.
It's also a good concrete issue to use in understanding that while arguments like "Democrats Do Bad Stuff Too So IDK Apathy" may be persuasive to some people in justifying not voting, it's ultimately not true. If this issue matters to you, there was a ballot box solution to preventing it. Not enough people used it.
