It's common knowledge that Harry Potter author J. K. Rowling has a magical way with words, but these internet trolls found out the hard way that her comebacks are just as enchanting.

The British novelist is often vocal about her political views, especially her support for the LGBTQ community and her disdain for Donald Trump. This has attracted some negative attention to her Twitter page, but she instantly summons brutal responses every time. After all, she knows a "load of cobblers" when she sees it.

Check out some of her wittiest take-downs below. You may want to use one the next time a mere muggle has something nasty to say.

    By labeling him a "Lone Wolf", the media's dismissing the crime as something conceived and cultivated in his mind alone, and is not reflective of a broader culture against Muslims, or influenced in any way by violent and/or hateful ideology. By not calling him a terrorist, they're protecting said broader culture from scrutiny and placing it squarely on the individual. If this were done on behalf of other terrorists of other races, Islamophobia wouldn't grow into the monster that it is. So, yes -- it's fair to call him a terrorist, inasmuch as it's fair to call any person who kills innocent people a terrorist, regardless of their motivation for doing so.

    This. A million times this! Anyone who claims to be a HP fan but then thinks this way clearly missed the entire message. It makes me wonder what the hell they liked about the books then. Was it just all the surface stuff like the magic?

    She said... "When I WORKED for Amnesty International", and what did he do? She didn't even go for it in her come-back reply. Seems to me she's done more than just "talking politics".

    Voldemort as least was intelligent, an had dignity and a chilling kind of style. But I'm not sure if I'd rather have him as a president - probably not; he would do things too systematically. True evil.

    I think when it comes to movies, because they try to be more "realistic", they have this sort of "unwritten rule" of staying closer to the character descriptions, where in stage performances, appearance-related differences are generally not important, unless specific to the social situations around the character (i.e. If the play / musical concerns race relations, you don't want, say, the persecuted black American character played by a Chinese guy or something, lest the audience get very confused.)

    Why doesn't he/she just type "your" and "you". It's already an introduction to a battle that's impossible for Rowling to lose.

    This is so true. For years I kept quiet because I didn't want to involve myself in a ridiculous political argument. I think a good portion of my countrymen felt that way. Now look where we are. It's going to be a long 4 years, and we're going to have to fight every second of it.

    I can't tell if the person is FOR or AGAINST abortion, but I can tell that they didn't quite understand the point of the film Vera Drake.

    I'm kind of confused by the relevance of this quote. I would've quoted the U.S. Constitution, since it was rather explicitly written by guys who mostly didn't care much for the Bible. Amendment 1 of the Constitution says this: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof" which seems decidedly more on-point.

    I kept thinking "Nerd" was the username of someone who linked to J.K. Rowlings post. Imagine my confusion untill I realized someone had called her a nerd, as if it's a bad thing o.O

    If it's 'just words', let's see Trump's reaction if someone came up to his wife and said (using just words) "Melania, I would love to grab your p...y". No, it's not 'just' words.
