WHAT IS SO BAD ABOUT POPULISM?

So they call Trump a "populist" president. The definition of "populist":
"a member or adherent of a political party seeking to represent the interests of ordinary people." So what is wrong with that?! Isn't that what politicians are supposed to do? The USA is supposed to be a "representative" government. I think that to not support populism and its candidates is to admit we are too stupid to know what is good for us and to accept what the upper classes allow us to have. I can't believe the news media is so strongly against a "populist".
