The election results have people calling for a real Dumbledore's Army
When a fictitious world of wizards was threatened by a rising force of a darkness and a government that ignored his threat, Harry Potter and his friends did the only thing they could do: They kept fighting for what they believed in.
For many Americans, the 2016 election looked eerily similar to Harry's fight against Voldemort, so now Harry Potter fans on Twitter are calling for Dumbledore's Army and the Order of the Phoenix to come to life.
Harry and his fellow students started the underground society of Dumbledore's Army in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix to learn defensive magic and be prepared for Voldemort's return. In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, when Death Eaters take over Hogwarts, the remaining members are punished for graffiti reading, "Dumbledore's Army: still recruiting."
