Right Populism

The real people vs. the elites.

Right-wing populists see politics as ordinary people against a corrupt elite, and add nationalism, immigration restriction and distrust of international institutions. Usually there's one big personality at the top, presenting themselves as the only one fighting the media, judges and the establishment for you.

Where it gets messy

Critics say it chips away at judges, journalists and minority protections, and blames migrants for everything. Economists warn about the costs of protectionism and big promises.
