The right wing has embraced populism going back to the tea party movement in the late 2000s. The democrats are having a harder time embracing left wing populism because it scares away their big rich donors. That’s always been a factor but more so now that corporate donations and dark money in politics makes those rich people so much more important for fundraising.
They have the advantage of stupidity. Truth is complex and mostly requires longer sentences to convey all nunces, while lies are simple and can be conveyed by just a couple of words.
Love 'em or hate 'em, MAGA’s success in spreading their horrible and hateful ideas is actually impressive.

You mean the answer to all of life’s problems isn’t just “immigrants”, “the gays”, or “woke”?
Sounds like liberal lies to me!
