Molly Jong-Fast: Zohran Mamdani’s Messaging on ‘Economic Populism’ Was Great

‘What I’ve been really surprised by is how Democrats have had so much trouble messaging on economic populism’

EXCERPT:

JONG-FAST: “What I've been really surprised by is how Democrats have had so much trouble messaging on economic populism, when in fact, most of their proposals are actual economic populism. And we're watching this vot-a-rama right now, which will give -- I mean, by the way, the numbers in this -- in this bill, 150 billion boost to military spending, OK, cutting food stamps and Medicaid, closing rural hospitals. I mean, so, like, Republicans are not doing economic populism.”
