Interesting Article on one of President Trumps Populist Predecessors
I mentioned this person before. He was Father Coughlin, a renowned radio personality of the 1930s who initially supported President Franklin Roosevelt and then abandoned him and embarked on the dark side of populism making several groups, notably Jews a scapegoat for all America's ills. A must read. He like George Wallace and Pat Buchanan helped lay the long term foundation for President Trump.
