The two major political parties in the United States are the Democratic Party and the Republican Party.

Explanation:

The Republican Party is a political party of the United States, commonly associated with conservatism. At present, it is the party of government to which President Donald Trump belongs and which holds the majority in the United States Senate.

The Democratic Party traces its origins to the Democratic-Republican Party of Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. It was founded around 1828 by followers of Andrew Jackson, making it the oldest active political party in the world. The Democratic Party's philosophy of modern liberalism advocates for social and economic equality, along with the welfare state, and seeks to provide government intervention and regulation in the economy.
