Like any populist leader, they have just seen which way the crowd is moving, ran to the front and pretended that's what they were going to do all along.

I want to say that people like you falling for this is mind blowing, but it actually just seems to be a rather depressing part of human nature. I'll never understand why people show such loyalty to a company that only cares about how much money they can extract from your pockets.
