I’m going to take half of Chloe’s candy tonight & give it to some kid who sat at home. It’s never to early to teach her about socialism. pic.twitter.com/3ie9C0jv2G

A lot of people, like historian and author Kevin M. Kruse, pointed out the big flaw in Trump Jr.'s logic.

Then, on Wednesday morning, J.K. Rowling waded in:
Fill her bucket with old candy left by her great-grandfather, then explain that she has more because she's smarter than all the other kids. https://t.co/0lbhHYyFe4

If this were a wizarding dual, Donald Trump Jr. would just have been expelliarmus'd.
Hard.
