Yeah, that's a real help, especially for type 1 diabetics. How do these bad haircuts get elected? And then re-elected? There really should be an IQ test.
populism is just code for racism. It has nothing to do with the population. Otherwise the party is for the big corps and Russia. democracy is getting votes from the poor and money from the rich.
The populist right still has a fairly large contingent of poor useful idiots. A number of them reside here at ET.
