What is populism, really?
Was its first and last chance as a serious political movement the late 19th century Midwest?
Was William Jennings Bryan a fool or our savior?
If its just a movement appealing to the "common man" isn't that what all political parties try to do ?
Why has it been villinized for decades?

It's not just about appealing to the common man, it's about demonizing and scapegoating some "elite," explicitly or implicitly. Often it means, essentially, flattering the uninformed by telling them that experts are frauds.

No
It's showing Williams Jennings Bryan as a monster
He ran for president as a populist and got support from Midwest farmers

Later was a major player in the scopes monkey trial
