Timothy Snyder (@TimothyDSnyder) calls it sadopopulism and explains the formula:
🔹Identify an "enemy" (homeless migrants, Democrats, etc.)
🔹Enact policies that create pain
🔹Blame the pain on the "enemies"
🔹Present yourself as the strongmen who can fight the "enemies."
In case you're wondering if what we are doing is working:
1. We won the House in 2018
2. We won the White House in 2020
3. We won the Senate in 2021
4. NRA Is bankrupt
5. Fox News ratings plummet; behind CNN and MSNBC for first time in 2 decades.
NOW IS THE TIME.
DON'T STOP.
