Donald Trump’s working-class populist messaging and his campaign’s heavy reliance on big-money interest groups. The “copy-pasted PDF” refers to the well-documented practice of corporate lobbying groups—like private prison operators GEO Group and CoreCivic, or energy sector trade associations—drafting pre-written legislation, executive order templates, and policy whitepapers that campaigns adopt nearly word-for-word. While Trump rallies supporters on populist themes, his team uses public “redboxing” to signal those exact lobbyist-crafted policy positions and target markets to allied Super PACs, which then flood the airwaves with tens of millions of dollars in supportive ad buys.
