Populism is mostly separating people in two groups, "the people" and "the elites" and saying you're from "the people". You don't actually have to do anything for the people, just convince them you're with them (hence all the populists winning elections out there, like Trump).
Odds Republicans would ever do something like this with the current party are nil, a large part of republican donors are big businesses that would never back anything that empowers workers.
Till we all realize that both parties are the problem and stop calling the party we don’t support the boogey man, we will be stuck in this hamster wheel of absurdity.
