The Populist's Guide to 2020

Enjeti co-wrote The Populist's Guide to 2020 with Krystal Ball, published on February 8, 2020 and currently in the top ten best sellers in the "political commentary" category on Amazon.[14] The book is a series of essays written by the authors, each with a co-written introduction. It heavily criticizes center-left media outlets and political leaders for what the authors characterize as "multi-decade long bipartisan failures, systemic breakdowns, and utter betrayal of the working class." Enjeti focuses on attacking corporate power, lack of affordable healthcare, foreign wars, and identity politics.[15]
