Obama’s epic rant on Trump’s “populism”
by digby
“That’s not the measure of populism. That’s nativism, or xenophobia, or worse. Or it’s just cynicism….Let’s just be clear: Somebody who labels ‘us versus them’ or engaged in rhetoric about how we’re going to look after ourselves and take it to the other guy — that’s not the definition of populism. Sorry.”
Actually it’s pretty standard with right wing populism. But the rant is good nonetheless.
