And mostly wrong at that


I mean if you're going to describe "progressives" as anyone who wants change, then sure.

But they particular flavor of progressivism that was in vogue at the time was ... wait for it ... Populism. A grass-roots rural group that rose up in the heartland based in a dissatisfaction with both major parties at the time. They were anti-urban, and anti-global.

Basically they were old timey Trumpsters themselves. Congrats!
