    This is quiet a bet. All congress members are distributed in a Gaussian distribution around the S&P 500. So copying everyone would just give you the same average. So you would have to pick the members, who outperform consistently. But this changes year over year. For example Pelosi outperformed in 2023, but underperformed in 2022.

    And at that point you could just buy individual stocks – or even better: stick to a market neutral ETF.

      just pick one that

      outperformed every year, or
      sits in the right comittees, or
      is republican or
      is most likely to be corrupt (e.g. gets the most corporate donations)

      and you can limit yourself to the stocks that are relevant to their positions.
