A male witch is a warlock right? Perhaps he's a reality warper, and isn't predicting things like Trump becoming president, but rather he's MAKING IT HAPPEN!!! BURN THE WARLOCK!
Depends on your source. I'm sure there's some context on which that's true.
If we're talking the transphobic author's world, a male witch is a wizard. Warlock, there, is a title kinda like "knight".
In D&D a warlock is a person who gets magic by forming a pact with an otherworldly patron, like a devil or fey. A witch has meant different things at different times, but probably most strongly conjured images of an old-looking hag brewing potions with a familiar.
According to IRL wiccan lore a warlock is an evil male practiser of witchcraft, while a witch can be male or female.
Other contexts will have other explanations, I'm sure.

Witch here. Nailed it.
I appreciate the information, it really sheds light on the nuance of those words.
