“Populist” is the most abused word in the English language. In truth it just means someone who supports the little guy and plays to majority opinion. Today, it’s used to describe anyone leftists don’t like. I don’t like Trump and am reserving judgement on Johnson, but neither is truly a populist.
As someone will undoubtedly point out, none of this crap belongs in the list.
