Defining Populism:
In its most rudimentary form, populism is defined as a movement of the people, often against an elitist, privileged class. (https://www.britannica.com/topic/populism). It is rooted in rebellion, collecting citizens against a united cause; challenging current status quo establishment politics and currently accepted societal morals and values. (Trust the People). A populous movement is often seen as bigger than the election itself, it is a direct revolt against an elitist subsection such as upper economic class or the educated that seemingly leaving behind the common class. (Trust the people).
