None are similar enough to contemporary American politics to make a useful comparison with.

If I really wanted to troll, I could hash out a comparison with South Africa (where the GOP plays the role of the ANC) but it won't be academically relevant or anything.

If anybody wants to here my rationale for south Africa.

Both parties are led by a party that used to fight for freedom, had a period led by a paranoid unlikable weirdo and has now devolved to being led by a fat corrupt rapist who was initially cheered on by the idealogical wing, until they immediately came to regret it. Gets its support from rural areas and the dominant ethnic group. Opposed by a Woke party of urban diverse neoliberals that has an uncomfortable alliance of convince with leftists from the dominant ethnic group.
