Watching the movie "Game
Change" about the 2008 election campaign, I was reminded about Sarah
Palin's "rogue" period where she knowingly told a number of lies, criticized
the media, dug at Barack Obama in the ugliest way and rallied her troops to
rebel against the system.
The John McCain character,
refusing to go along at one point, warns his advisors, "There's a dark
side to this kind of populism."
Fast forward 8 years and you get
Donald Trump.
And the Deplorables.
