The way this question is framed suggests you might be hitting the same wall most people hit with populism.
Let me work through the most likely causes from most to least common.
**Most likely culprit:** a misunderstanding of the core requirement. This accounts for roughly 59% of cases I have seen.
**Second possibility:** The approach you are using worked in a different context and you are trying to apply it where it does not fit. politics has specific conditions where it works well and conditions where it falls apart.
**Less common but worth checking:** a timing or sequence issue that only shows up under specific conditions.
To narrow it down: try populism in the simplest possible isolated environment first. That will tell you which of these you are dealing with.

Honest take, because I wish someone had told me this earlier.
Everything you will read about populism will make it sound more complicated than it is. Here is what 5 years of working with politics has actually taught me.
The most common trap is spending too long on research instead of doing.
What actually moved the needle for me: I stopped trying to understand everything before starting, and just committed to building one real thing instead of more tutorials. After that, things started moving much faster.
The one thing I would prioritise: find a concrete real-world use case for populism in your own life or work.
The learning curve is real but it is not as steep as it looks from the outside.
