She's an author so she should (theoretically) be concerned with the meanings of words and sentences. This statement is about how it takes real mettle to deal with prosperity (one of the trappings of which is power). Any man can deal with adversity, but only a few can handle prosperity.
In the end, the quote is praising Trump, not trolling him. But this should be expected from an author who is so lazy she never thinks about any deeper meaning or how things might be impacted later in the story, or, if she does, it's referring to the next page.

I enjoyed the series. Pretty light reading that doesn't require much effort or thought.

I read the first few harry potters when i was a pre-teen. I don't remember enough about the writing style to really comment, but I do remember there being more than one occasion where, to suit the plot, there being shit like "Oh, well, see that magic won't work right now because this even more powerful form of magic which has never been referenced before now would supersede it!"
But they are f**k childrens books so I would expect the writing style to be pretty simplistic. The author need not be ashamed for writing children's books in a style that children can easily digest.

trump only does this to distract from a news story that's dropping that is terrible for him. my guess is a distraction about the slew of direct connecctions being drawn between his direct staff and russian hackers.
