14 times J.K. Rowling absolutely annihilated Donald Trump on Twitter
LONDON — J.K. Rowling has turned social media shutdowns into a work of art.
Obviously she doesn't exclusively go after Donald Trump, but we'd estimate that roughly 75 percent of her Twitter burn output — at least at the moment — is directed at the president-elect.

From giant orange Twitter eggs to Voldemort comparisons, we've rounded them all up below.
1. The time she compared Trump to Voldemort.

2. Her re-working of his infamous quotes about women.
'It's your fault I didn't pay taxes, Hillary. Women let you do anything when you're a star.'

3. And her response to his defence.
Trump says 'just words, folks.' It's his accusation and his defence. Words don't matter. Facts don't matter. If they don't, we're all lost.

4. The time she explained why Trump's actions are her business.
When a man this ignorant & easy to manipulate gets within sniffing distance of the nuclear codes, it's everyone's business. #RestOfTheWorld https://t.co/yHBIIuhYEN

5. This space-themed shutdown.
If a Space Alien landed in the USA & requested: "Take me to your leader", I wonder how Pres Trump would react vs Pres Clinton

Afraid we need to know whether the alien has breasts before we can answer. https://t.co/xHE9K5F7xt

6. The time she taught him how to make friends.
'I've developed so many friends.'
Humans 'make' friends, Donald. They 'make' them.#debate— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) October 20, 2016
7. The time she compared him to a Twitter egg.
Well, there you have it. A highly intelligent, experienced woman just debated a giant orange Twitter egg. Your move, America. #debate

8. The time she picked up on his spelling.

9. The time she made her Trump-bashing stance clear.
If all famous people can constantly criticise Trump for the next four years he'll be too busy ranting on twitter to kill us all.

Never forget that some people's good opinion would be more insulting than their abuse! pic.twitter.com/XYRCHTijQz

11. The time she didn't even need the full 140 characters.
Russia has never tried to use leverage over me. I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH RUSSIA - NO DEALS, NO LOANS, NO NOTHING!

12. The time she brought hand size into the mix.
Those teeny little fingers are within twitching distance of the nuclear codes. We're all in it, up to our necks. https://t.co/9xWbSKKXRl
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) January 11, 2017
13. This undeniably amusing comparison.
.@CNN is in a total meltdown with their FAKE NEWS because their ratings are tanking since election and their credibility will soon be gone!

Keep having flashbacks to a little girl in my class at primary school, whose go-to insults were YOU'VE GOT FLEAS and YOU SMELL. https://t.co/Ej4lSCDg1L
