Harry Potter could help stop Donald Trump becoming US president


A new study by the University of Pennsylvania has discovered that "Americans who read JK Rowling's Hogwarts stories are more likely to dislike Trump, possibly as a result of the franchise's 'opposition to authoritarianism' (we're looking at you, Voldemort) and promotion of diversity, tolerance and acceptance."

JK Rowling has Tweeted that Voldemort is "nowhere near as bad" as Donald Trump.
