Too bad, so sad, Piers Morgan!
The always controversial British TV host got his ass handed to him on Twitter over the last few hours, fresh off a controversial appearance on Bill Maher‘s HBO show last night — and the tweets today are FIRE.
J.K. Rowling specifically is calling out Piers for his bad takes on — and support of — Donald Trump, and you’ve got to see it all to believe it!

It all started on Maher’s show last night, when comedian Jim Jefferies demolished Piers regarding Trump’s Muslim ban, which you can see in a highlighted clip (below):
Whoa!!!
That set off a firestorm of arguments, as you might imagine, but it also set off Rowling, who didn’t hold back in giving her opinion about Trump — and Piers — with a Harry Potter twist!!
Here’s what she tweeted (below):
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

Damn!!!!

Now, Piers is a sensitive little man (just like his buddy Donald Trump!!!), and so that set him off. The two tweeted back and forth for a few hours, the likes of which can all be seen (below):
This is why I’ve never read a single word of Harry Potter. https://t.co/XUJBMs4KKm

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

.@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.

The fact-free, amoral, bigotry-apologism of celebrity toady Piers Morgan is, of course, why it’s so delicious to see him told to fuck off. https://t.co/4XNF4G0nlD

I see: if you win, you’re right? I seem to have read something rather like that before… hmm… pretty sure it was in German… https://t.co/omRwd6l2RW

.@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.

Exhausting, but always refreshing, to see Piers Morgan get owned!!!
At press time, he’s still stammering away and trying to attack every living soul on Twitter — you know, the typical Piers “please pay attention to me” Morgan kind of behavior we’ve all come to know.
Count one for Rowling!
