Trump worse than Voldemort, says J.K. Rowling
 [DAWN] World leaders, fellow Republicans, along with “Harry Potter “author J.K. Rowling condemned comments by US presidential hopeful Donald Trump saying Muslims should be barred from entering the United States. British author J.K. Rowling wrote on Twitter that Voldemort, the archvillain of her popular Harry Potter series, “was nowhere near as bad” as Trump.That's a really dumb statement by a really good writer. She invented a character who epitomized Evil. Trump is maybe wrong, but he's not Evil, and probably not even evil. Hyperbole's a poor substitute for just saying "I disagree." Trump's proposal also drew criticism in France, which had its worst attacks since World War Two on Nov. 13 when shootings and suicide bombings in Paris killed 130 people. French Prime Minister Manuel Valls, in a post on Twitter, said “Mr Trump, like others, is feeding hatred and misinformation. Our only enemy is radical Islam.” Posted by: Fred 2015-12-09 |
