“… egy PiS-kormány vagy egy Fidesz-kormány nem csupán egy PiS-államot vagy egy Fidesz-államot alakít ki; arra törekszik, hogy létrehozza a PiS-népet, illetve a Fidesz-népet (gyakran valamiféle ezzel megbízott, kormányközeli civil társadalom segédletével). A populisták megteremtik azt a homogén népet, aminek mindig is a nevében beszéltek.”
Jan-Werner Müller, What Is Populism?

“In short, the problem is never the populist’s imperfect capacity to represent the people’s will; rather, it’s always the institutions that somehow produce the wrong outcomes. So even if they look properly democratic, there must be something going on behind the scenes that allows corrupt elites to continue to betray the people. Conspiracy theories are thus not a curious addition to populist rhetoric; they are rooted in and emerge from the very logic of populism itself.”
Jan-Werner Müller, What Is Populism?

“Populists, by contrast, will persist with their representative claim no matter what; because their claim is of moral and symbolic- not an empirical- nature, it cannot be disproven.”
Jan-Werner Müller, What Is Populism?
