00:00 It's Benzinga, and here's what's on the block.
00:02 Conservative thinkers close to Trump have developed an economic populism framework
00:06 around his message that shifts from traditional GOP positions.
00:10 It aims to put workers first over corporate elites and rejects the Reaganite approach
00:14 that benefited companies more than laborers. Amid the Trump-era culture wars,
00:18 neopopulists view corporate CEOs not as allies in the fight against big government,
00:22 but as woke elitists imposing liberal values on middle America.
00:26 The vision is for a worker-centric party that supports measures like higher unionization
00:31 and financial transaction taxes. While not yet dominant, this populism is on the rise and could
00:36 reshape GOP economic stances if adopted nationally. For all things money, visit Benzinga.com.
