This “gotcha” for the troll who called a woman an economic illiterate was quite something
If there’s one thing that internet trolls seem to have in common – and there are actually a lot of things – it’s that they really don’t think before they fire out insults.
One mouthy Canadian Trump fan – a rarity – got their comeuppance when they responded to Britgirl Explains Brexit #FBPE – or @MarieAnnUK, to her Twitter followers.
Here’s the tweet that got the troll riled.
The urge to ask Brexit fans 'if they were dropped on their head as a baby or are they just naturally that stupid?' is strong today.

And this was the response.
Quite apart from the fact that she hadn’t mentioned racism, there was a huge problem with the accusation.

Someone named @FeeshKeeng had a theory.
No, no. He means patriotic economics.
