Is Bernie Sanders a populist?
I'm not sure. Can you explain the difference between populism and socialism?
Populist politicians generally seek to appeal to the popular opinion and the concerns of the common people, often by attacking the established political and economic elites. Socialist politicians, on the other hand, focus on promoting social ownership of the means of production and promoting economic equality. While there can be some overlap between these ideologies, they are not the same thing.
