J.K Rolling is a brilliant author who created fantastic characters in a series of stories about the young wizard Harry Potter. One of the characters is Lord Voldemort, who is the ultimate villain.
The character was a self-righteous, entitled embodiment of pure evil. But apparently he's got nothing on Donald Trump.
When BBC News pointed out that after Trump's call to prevent any and all Muslims from entering the United States, social media users started calling him Voldemort, Rowling took exception.
Rolling wrote on Twitter Tuesday morning,
"How horrible. Voldemort was nowhere near as bad.
The tweet, at press time, has over 60,000 retweets and likes.
It came as part of a series of political-oriented tweets from the writer, who also retweeted a map showing which of the hundreds of mass shootings in the U.S. had Muslim suspects (three of them), and a retweet from Amnesty UK.
