George Wallace to Trump-Vance: Welfare Populism and It's Consequences.

In this Twitter Space-Podcast Croaky and friends discuss the second assassination attempt on Trump in as many months and why the political environment of populism leads to such consequences. Croaky discusses the problems with populism and uses the example of George Wallace and his attempt to veil his populism in the guise of conservatism in the same way Trump and JD Vance do. Other topics also discussed with some crude language so be warned and enjoy.
