Trump is a textbook demagogue.

I can't imagine that even his supporters would deny that. No new revelation from Hawking here.

Name an elected pol that is not

Is this really the plan through November? Trump lies - well, everyone does. Trump stokes fear - well, everyone does. Trump flip flops - well, everyone does.

Trump does all of it more - much more. Do other pols engage in demagoguery? Yes. Anywhere near what Trump does? No way. No one I can think of in my lifetime.

He is the classic demagogue. It's what he does. It's all he does.

He doesn't need to.

You and the other acolytes do it for him.

Stephen Hawking angered supporters of Donald J. Trump by responding to a question about the billionaire with a baffling array of long words.

Speaking to a television interviewer, Hawking called Trump “a demagogue who seems to appeal to the lowest common denominator,” a statement that many Trump supporters believed was intentionally designed to confuse them.

Moments after Hawking made the remark, Google reported a sharp increase in searches for “demagogue,” “denominator,” and “Stephen Hawking.”

“For a so-called genius, this was an epic fail,” Trump’s campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, said. “If Professor Hawking wants to do some damage, maybe he should try talking in English next time.”

Later in the day, Hawking attempted to clarify his remark about the Republican Presidential nominee, telling a reporter, “Trump bad man. Real bad man.”

Hilarious!

Probably close to the mark, too.

You don't need to be a genius to see what Trump is.
It helps if you are rational, but you don't need to be a genius.
Racists will overlook a lot when they believe they have a champion for their cause.
