Always go for your gut feeling, not for what people are blaring. Especially populists will, as the name suggest, crave for people's attention and a cheap "Yeah, they are totally right!". That's how they win elections. And three months into the new period, they will show their real intentions.
Surely gut feelings are how we get populists voted in? I’d prefer people sat and thought carefully for a while than trusted their gut!
I directly addressed the "feelings" OP was having.
Besides, the past has shown that facts are opinions for some folks, so even that would not work.
My advice assumes a mentally stable person with somewhat modest reasoning.
