I think the rise of progressives is the biggest storyline there is, whether it's Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez or Kara Eastman or Randy Bryce, Richard Ojeda - real populist progressives that are willing to actually fight for the progressive message rather than the lukewarm establishment Democrats.

In these troubled times we live in, we should remain vigilant and see through populist arguments.

The crisis of the 1930s and the populist reactions of that time must not be forgotten.

Governments can't escape from taking tough steps. One can't be populist about it. You can't flirt with such serious issues like security.

Trump might have a populist message that resonates with some voters, but the man doesn't care about any of the people he's appealing to.

Like all populist movements, the Tea Party will eventually peter out. It won't succeed in returning America to the minimalist state of the 19th century.

Some voters live in a so-called populist bubble, where they hear nationalist and xenophobic messages, learn to distrust fact-based media and evidence-based science, and become receptive to conspiracy theories and suspicious of democratic institutions.

It should be clear to everyone what happens when the populists can set the agenda.

Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer

The populists are right in one key area: voters want jobs and equitable growth, and can hardly be faulted for that. The challenge is to find a more inclusive growth trajectory that can be sustained economically, ecologically, and politically.

Much of the media failed to anticipate the potential Trump represented as a disruptive populist force, understand why his supporters trusted him, or offer honest reporting on the underlying trends that made his rise possible.

Ben Domenech

I don't trust that the big-business part of our coalition is ever going to defend federalism and argue against regulatory capture. I don't trust that populists are going to defend religious liberty and the rights of creedal minorities.

Limbaugh can rightly be said to be the greatest populist expositor of conservatism in America since Reagan, and the link between the Reagan generation and the so-called Rush Babies.

I'm so proud of being a populist!

It's a very beautiful word, populism. I'm proud to be a populist.

Beating up on the so-called elite media has a nice populist ring to it.

I come from a working class community in eastern Scotland, and I've always been a populist, though not a patronising populist.

I'm anti-big power. I don't know if that's populist or not.

The Populist Caucus believes that all Americans should have access to affordable, quality healthcare.

The Populist Caucus is the only caucus in Congress devoted solely to addressing middle class economic issues. We formed the caucus because the founding members felt like there wasn't enough focus on middle class issues in Washington, and we're going to keep it focused on middle class issues.

Bruce Braley

A populist is someone who fights for common sense economic policies that sustain and expand the middle class.

Bruce Braley

Who Us T

The Populist Caucus aims to bring people together around middle class issues, so we can tolerate a little difference of opinion.

I think the rise of progressives is the biggest storyline there is, whether it's Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez or Kara Eastman or Randy Bryce, Richard Ojeda - real populist progressives that are willing to actually fight for the progressive message rather than the lukewarm establishment Democrats.

The normalization of Trump is one indicator that there may be less to the populist insurrection than imagined.

Charles Krauthammer

In retrospect, the populist panic may have been overblown. Regarding Brexit, for example, the shock exaggerated its meaning. Because it was so unexpected, it became a sensation.

Charles Krauthammer

The Republican party is changing. It's becoming more populist.

Corey Stewart

I think the Brexit vote in Great Britain informing this populist movement of nationalism is kind of a global thing, and I think it's no particular political party's fault. People have been left behind, and in America, we're used to going forward. It's always like we're going to be better; the next generation's going to be better.

Dana Carvey

The populists always fail in their own terms. Let me be more specific, the protectionists always fail. They always end up delivering the sharpest fall in living standards to the people who are their biggest supporters.

Daniel Hannan

I believe that the Conservative party is at its best when it's a pro-business, pragmatic party, so to appeal to the country, and the country loses out significantly if the centre right of politics becomes much more populist, nationalist, and more right of centre.

David Gauke

A willingness by politicians to say what they think the public want to hear, and a willingness by large parts of the public to believe what they are told by populist politicians, has led to a deterioration in our public discourse.

David Gauke

Donald Trump did not cause America's democratic crisis of faith, he rode to power on it. Once in control, he and other populists discovered their room for manoeuvre was expanded by the same disillusionment that helped them into office.

David Olusoga

I don't see myself as particularly highbrow. I am much more populist.

David Slade

Bill Clinton sitting on Air Force One getting his hair cut while people around the country cooled their heels and waited for him, became a metaphor for a populist president who had gotten drunk with the perks of his own power and was sort of, you know, not sensitive to what people wanted.

Dee Dee Myers

Paralysis in decision-making breeds frustration and contempt from the electorate, and provides the perfect seedbed for demagogues who fill the vacuum with populist simplicities, hatred of opposition and lies.

Dominic Grieve

Well, I think the Republican Party is the more populist party.

Ed Gillespie

There's a nastiness out there that wants to harm me with words. These are my enemies - the ideologues, the populists, the columnists who don't like the fact that I take them on toe-to-toe. What I try to do is tell the truth. It's not the coin of the realm in politics.

Ed Koch

Politicians and leaders who see the media as 'the enemy within' divide society into two clashing cultural camps. Populist demagogues benefit from binary oppositions.

Elif Safak

Pundits talk about 'populist rage' as a way to trivialize the anger and fear coursing through the middle class.

Elizabeth Warren

As with fascism, the rise of Islamic totalitarianism has partly to do with its populist appeal to the class resentments of an economically oppressed population and to anger at political subordination and humiliation.

Ellen Willis

Populist promises to reverse every tough decision are nothing but empty rhetoric, irresponsible leadership, and bad politics. They are not the solution to Ireland's problems.

Enda Kenny

After the global financial crisis of 2008, populist uprisings had sprouted across Europe. Putin and his strategists sensed the beginnings of a larger uprising that could upend the Continent and make life uncomfortable for his geostrategic competitors.

Franklin Foer

I don't know if I'm a populist artist, but I do try to maintain a spirit of generosity.

Fred Tomaselli

Compromise disappoints those who buy into the most ambitious and simplistic populist slogans.

Gavin Esler

Democratic government is difficult. It is much more difficult than populists claim. It's not like running a business or a police force. It demands compromise.

Gavin Esler

If populism means reducing the gap between the people and the elite, giving sovereignty - the fullness of sovereignty - back to the people, and making the job of representation really adhere to the protection of the interests represented, we embrace the title of populists.

Giuseppe Conte

To those who accuse us of being populists, we respond that if this means listening to the people, then yes, we are!

Giuseppe Conte

Obama supporters pretended that his 2008 campaign was some sort of populist uprising even as Wall Street overwhelmingly supported his candidacy.

Glenn Greenwald

Folk music usually has an emphasis on the lyrics and melody. And those lyrics are usually relevant in some way. And it's populist in scope, which is also true of Bad Religion. So it's more meant to draw some parallels between the two. And I think even my voice and my delivery can be thought of as a little bit folky.

Greg Graffin

Trump is a populist in the same mold as the nineteenth-century Populists who gave their name to American grassroots political movements. Historians and pundits argued themselves blue in the face over whether Populists were reactionary or progressive, but they were both.

Heather Cox Richardson

I think it's always hard for people to get their head around the fact that populist, commercial films can also actually be great works of art.

Helen Mirren

I suspect that many of the great cultural shifts that prepare the way for political change are largely aesthetic. A Buick radiator grille is as much a political statement as a Rolls Royce radiator grille, one enshrining a machine aesthetic driven by a populist optimism, the other enshrining a hierarchical and exclusive social order.
