I voted both because, it often combines a heavy stress on leadership, on the one hand, and popular equality, on the other

It can also have a highly illiberal and intolerant position on traditional civil liberties

Apparently, I'm a moderate liberal populist so I musn't subscribe to much of that

Generally-speaking, I'd say a mainstream American populist runs to the left on economics and to the right on social issues - but that doesn't necessarily apply to all populists

It would probably apply to me - though I'm, significantly, more to the left on economics than I am to the right on social issues
