David Cameron, the former British Conservative Prime Minister has accused Trump of undermining democracy with his attacks on the media.

In a speech, Cameron said:

"President Trump, ‘fake news’ is not broadcasters criticising you, it’s Russian bots and trolls targeting your*democracy pumping out untrue stories day after day, night after night.

“When you misappropriate the term ‘fake news’, you are deflecting attention from real abuses. Ignoring what’s happening on social media is facilitating a form of corruption that is undermining democracy.”

Well, we've reached the stage where former leaders of America's closest allies are openly criticising Trump, saying he's undermining democracy. Congrats.

The problem here is that trump is yelling fake news in order to discredit news organizations specifically to assist Putin In his propaganda attack.
 
"We" are at Brexit because of Cameron? Meaning what, and what makes him an idiot?
This post is below my quality threshold. If you want my attention pick up some basic education on the matter and try again.
 
Who really cares what he thinks about our President.
He should clean out his own house before cleaning Mr. Trump's.
 
Says the guy in the country where someone get's jail time for saying something negative about Islam/Muslims!

Piss off, Cameron.
 
Cameron was a leader of the Conservative Party of Britain from 2005 to 2016. I'm surprised the Trump fans aren't more accepting of his opinions. Perhaps you should get out of your paradigm.
 
Does Trump undermine democracy by attacking the press or does the press undermine democracy by being biased?
 
More and more current and former world leaders are being quite open and frank about the insecurities of Donald "Twitter" Trump.
