Stephen Hawking calls Donald Trump’s a demagogue.


Can you just believe it Stephen hawking calls Donald Trump a demagogue? As one of the world’s most renowned scientists Stephen hawking is regularly called on to explain the universes more mysterious phenomena. But why did the British theoretical physicist call him like this irrespective of Donald Trump’s political rise on Tuesday.


StephenHawking told CNN affiliate ITV good morning Britain program that he is a demagogue who seems to appeal to the lowest common denominator. Now let me inform you that the Trump campaign did not immediately reply a message requesting comment.

Stephen Hawking, who has previously joked about his dismay at the U.S. presidential race, also weighed in on the Brexit issue, saying he hoped Britons voted to remain in the European Union when a referendum is held on the issue next month.


"Gone are the days we could stand on our own, against the world. We need to be part of a larger group of nations, both for our security, and our trade," the 74-year-old Stephen Hawking said.

"There are two obvious reasons why we should stay in. The first is that it promotes the mobility of people. Students can come here from EU countries to study, and our students can go to other EU universities," Stephen Hawking said.


"More importantly, at the level of research, the exchange of people enables skills to transfer more quickly, and brings new people with different ideas. Without this exchange we would become more culturally isolated and insular, and ultimately more remote from where progress is being made." Stephen Hawking said.


Stephen Hawking also brushed off a suggestion he had benefited from a surge of interest following actor Eddie Redmayne's Oscar-winning portrayal of him in the 2014 movie "The Theory of Everything."
