At least a company ostensibly shrinking won't be shrouded in hypetrain fumes. Maybe it's actually a great idea for those with the know-how to navigate it, jumping around stabilizing wounds, maybe you can become an hero.

There may be something to your definition but populist is also plainly about the candidate who says whatever people want to hear, so yes it may overlap. As for GP's point, it may be the case for Trump but not so much for the newest pop
