Well that's basically the premise of populism. Your policy is doing whatever most of your audience would first think of doing (with no subtlety at all so as not to seem too smart or distant to them) then you just ignore the consequences when they come to bite you in the ass and most people won't think all those bad things are a result of your own stupid policy, because they believe it was perfectly logical and flawless to begin with.
Can we try populism+? We just get one guy, like a really smart good dude. Like a heavenly super person. We get them to look at all the ideas we have for stuff and tell us if there will be any consequences. If he says it's good, we do it. If it turns out bad, we kill him and try again.
We would need a name for this person. Something powerful right? Maybe "EMPEROR"
Unfortunately, nowadays populism is used almost exclusively about progressive ideas that are popular as a way to dismiss them because they’re not profitable or some shit.
Yep, even though trump is maybe the most populist president the country has seen
