Often, Donald Trump gets so angry on Twitter that he needs at least four tweets to adequately express the sheer levels of rage that he's feeling.

Luckily, J.K. Rowling only needs one tweet to shut him right back down again.

On Sunday, the subject of the president's wrath was an old favourite: Hillary Clinton and those pesky Democrats.

The Harry Potter author's response to that last tweet was a classic Rowling take-down.

Boom.
