Populism is reshaping both political parties—but why do extreme candidates keep winning while the middle gets ignored? In the debut episode of The Real Majority, I sit down with Michael Brodkorb to break down how outrage is rewarded, why voters aren’t punishing bad behavior anymore, and whether either party can reclaim its brand. We talk MAGA, AOC, Zoran Mamdani, the media’s obsession with conflict, and whether there’s still room in politics for boring, effective leadership. This is the political conversation most Americans have been waiting for.
