Sometimes, the stars just ignore the trolls, and other times, they hit back in spectacular fashion. Riley Gaines chose the latter in this Twitter exchange.

It started out with a perfectly innocuous post by Riley in the swimsuit of her former University swim team.

Apparently, she should wear a robe to swim competitively.

Well, that is a visual that requires brain bleach.

As they say, 'the haters will hate'.

Democrats are the new Puritans.

We all will, thanks.

There is quite a lot of jealousy in this thread.

Not one thing. 

America could all learn a great deal from Riley Gaines and her courage.
