Where were the price controls to control price gouging? Where were the rent controls to fight corporate landlords and their price fixing? She mentioned this stuff once back in August and then that part of her agenda got really quiet for some reason.
She brought that up in one of her last town halls. And if she already said it, and it was well known, what’s the issue? Remember Trump’s platinum plan.
And if she doesn’t mention it more than once, people interpret that as her not being serious. Telling people “It’s on the website!” is terrible campaign strategy.
Trump ran on a populist platform that wasn’t limited to economic populism. Harris didn’t have any compelling narrative whatsoever.
It’s the electorate stupid!

Trump’s populism is christian nationalism. Specifically white christian nationalism. So it’s not going to look Bernie’s populism. And those do whistles are, or at least were before they became so overt, dog whistles.

No, I mean populist. Populism is what is popular right now.

Agreed, but all the other talking points from Trump weren’t populist, just do whistles
