Stephen Hawking is indeed one of the greatest minds to have ever existed. His contributions to the world of science is invaluable. Although his books have been record breaking bestsellers, it’s the biographical film “The Theory of Everything” that truly brought to light the extraordinary life of this man to the masses. Of course his brief appearances in “The Big Bang Theory” were also quite epic.  

Like most scientist do, Stephen Hawking is also has very sound view on philosophy and life. He has also never shied away from politics either, often having strong views about health care labour laws and war.

What did this great man have to say about US presidential candidate Donald trump? When Hawking was asked to share his opinion on what makes Trump such a popular candidate amongst Americans, he simply said  “ He is a demagogue, who seems to appeal to the lowest common denominator.”

Is this what Trump is doing? Playing along and saying things that the American people want here? After all, he is an extremely successful businessman, who knows how to sell.
