It is no secret that Harry Potter author, J.K. Rowling, is not too fond of President Trump or anyone that agrees with him. Even when it comes to her fans, who have started burning the Harry Potter books in protest against her views, Rowling scoffs.
Piers Morgan, a British journalist, appeared on HBO’s Real Time with Bill Mahr where he attempted to tell the panel of guests that there was no “Muslim Ban.” Comedian Jim Jeffries response was absolutely perfect.
Immediately thereafter Rowling took to Twitter and tweeted:
Yes, watching Piers Morgan being told to fuck off on live TV is *exactly* as satisfying as I’d always imagined. https://t.co/4FII8sYmIt

Piers lashed out at Rowling saying that her attitude was exactly why he had never read any of her books, strange since Rowling never really said anything publicly until recently. Well, with that the feud began.
Because you had a premonition that one day the author would roar with laughter at seeing you called out for your bullshit on live TV? https://t.co/8rkKSqJTnG

Everything I said was factual.
If you think screaming ‘FUCK OFF!!!’ at me changes that, then you’re mistaken. https://t.co/0U9fVoTjfc— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) February 11, 2017
.@piersmorgan Would you like a couple of hours to mock up some pictures of refugees carrying explosives to substantiate your position? https://t.co/sFj0kqIajd

The superior, dismissive arrogance of rabid Remain/Clinton supporters like @jk_rowling is, of course, precisely why both campaigns lost.

.@piersmorgan If only you’d read Harry Potter, you’d know the downside of sucking up to the biggest bully in school is getting burned alive.

No bigger bullies right now than the shrieking, hysterical anti-Trump celebrity brigade.
You lost, so suck it up Dolores. https://t.co/RFQkyJWxZ5— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) February 11, 2017

Is it just me or does this seem like a grown up conversation between Hermione and Malfoy? Maybe we can watch her punch him in the nose again!
