Paul Krugman: “Donald Trump is often described as a ‘populist.’ Yet his administration is stuffed with wealthy men who are clueless about how the other 99.99 percent lives, while his policies involve undermining the working class while enabling wealthy tax cheats.”
“What is true is that many working-class voters supported Trump last year because they believed that he was on their side.
And that disconnect between perceptions and reality ought to be at the heart of any discussion of what Democrats should do now.”
