We have a populism problem in America…
One big, honking populist has just been shooed out of the White House. And his replacement while more of an old political hack and Washington establishmentarian than a populist per se is coming in trailing strong fumes of populism from his own political party.
Populism isn’t a Right‐wing or Left‐wing ideology. Populism isn’t an ideology at all…It’s about feelings, not ideas. Populism isn’t conservative or liberal, Republican or Democratic. But it
is both MAGA and BLM, both QAnon and Antifa AOC in a Boogaloo Boys Hawaiian shirt.
