J.K. Rowling Says Trump Is Worse Than Voldemort

J.K. Rowling sprang to the defense of her most evil character Voldemort on Tuesday after he was compared to Donald Trump.

The Harry Potter author posted on Twitter that it was "horrible" that people were calling Trump by the half-blood wizard's name.

And she added, "Voldemort was nowhere near as bad."

How horrible. Voldemort was nowhere near as bad. https://t.co/hFO0XmOpPH

Rowling responded to the trending story when she retweeted a BBC Newsbeat article.

The Republican presidential candidate was likened to "He Who Shall Not Be Named," portrayed by Ralph Fiennes in the movies, after suggesting Muslims should be banned from entering the U.S.

Trump's comments have sparked outrage, with many Harry Potter fans responding by posting on social media their ideas about how the businessman would fare amongst witches and wizards:

The only way to stop Donald Trump is to destroy his Horcruxes. The wig is definitely one. If you need me I'll be finding the other six.

My theory is that Trump is Voldemort & if the media stops saying his name, Harry Potter will come destroy him. America will be great again.

Maybe Donald Trump is a test to measure where you fit on the spectrum of evil. So if you still like Trump right now, you are Voldemort.
