NPR's evidence that Trump is a "populist"—or at least has a populist lurking inside him—is remarkably thin.

    When NPR dedicated all of 2016 to breaking Bernie down I knew it was compromised.

      There was no breaking needed. Contrary to what some people continue to believe, he never had any chance of winning the presidential election.

        That’s what most people said about Trump in 2016.

        and yet they did it anyway, so either NPR(DNC by extension) is incompetent or you’re wrong

        like saying unions don’t work, while big business spends tons fucking them so they don’t work

        It was so easy to get America’s boomers to believe this in both primaries, and thus it became true. We are really a country of morons.

    I assume they are just trying to get on Brendan Carr’s good side so they don’t cut NPR and PBS.
