J.K. Rowling Taunts 'Haughty' Trump With Handwriting Gibe
J.K. Rowling zinged President Donald Trump on Wednesday with a gibe about his handwriting.
The Harry Potter author shared a screenshot of a tweet asking why Trump’s signature was “so big” next to one from a graphology website explaining the negative traits associated with people who have large handwriting.

Handwriting-graphology.com claims that people who have large handwriting may be “arrogant,” “conceited” and “haughty” with “tyrant tendencies” and a “phony personality that may become megalomaniac with lack of a critical sense.”
“I didn’t believe in graphology until about three minutes ago,” Rowling replied.
Her post was well-received:
I thought he writes with big felt tips because he's not mastered grown-up pens yet

I analyze handwriting and I also see great aggression.

"more ambitions than real possibilities..."
desperately hoping this bit comes true.— Matt (@RobboRobson21) May 9, 2018
That's his signature? I thought it was his bar code.

Not to mention all the spikes in DT’s signature. A sign of major aggressiveness coupled with a need to attack as a defense.

If you had come up with a character like him in Harry Potter books would your editor have said that such a character would have been too extreme or far fetched for anyone to believe or take seriously?

My son is receiving the Presidential award for his grades in elementary. He came to me yesterday & was sad his brother has Obama on his & he gets What’s His Nuts. His really bummed.

Last month, Rowling likened Trump to a Boggart — the shape-shifting Harry Potter character who takes the form “of whatever most frightens the person who encounters it.”
