Author J.K Rowling, of the (in)famous Harry Potter series, has rendered a damning verdict on Donald Trump’s political chicanery – made up entirely of xenophobia and racism – comparing it to the campaign to get Britain out of the European Union (EU)
Rowling penned a crushing riposte to the arguments of the BREXIT camp, comparing the rhetoric used in the campaign to that of the Trump campaign.
In her piece, Rowling took a couple paragraphs to address the menace of Trump, and her words weren’t kind.

Look towards the Republican Party in America and shudder. ‘Make America Great Again!’ cries a man who is fascist in all but name. His stubby fingers are currently within horrifyingly close reach of America’s nuclear codes. He achieved this pre-eminence by proposing crude, unworkable solutions to complex threats. Terrorism? ‘Ban all Muslims!’ Immigration? ‘Build a wall!’ He has the temperament of an unstable nightclub bouncer, jeers at violence when it breaks out at his rallies and wears his disdain for women and minorities with pride. God help America. God help us all.
“Donald Trump supports the break up of the EU. The inheritor of a family fortune, he has never needed to cooperate or collaborate and he appears incapable of understanding complexity or nuance. Of foreign leaders or would-be leaders, Trump is joined only by Vladimir Putin and Marine le Pen in urging Brexit upon the UK. Other than those three, there is no major political leader who isn’t begging Britain to stay put, for the political and economic stability of Europe and the wider world.”

Rowling had more to say on the BREXIT campaign, which she feels is a huge mistake and would have severe repercussions on the European and global economy.
