Donald Trump and Greta Thunberg, renowned Swedish activist, have never seen eye to eye. Recently, after being deported from Israel along with over a hundred other activists, Trump labeled Thunberg as a “troublemaker” and claimed she had “anger management issues.” Greta, however, did not hold back in her response to Trump’s comment.
The situation unfolded when Greta Thunberg found herself detained and later deported by Israeli authorities. She, accompanied by more than a hundred activists, participated in the Global Sumud Flotilla to Gaza. Their aim was to sail to Gaza and challenge the existing blockade.
On arrival in Athens, Greece, Greta received a warm welcome from supporters at the airport. She spoke passionately to the crowd, showcasing her relentless dedication to activism.
As expected, it didn’t take long for Donald Trump to publicize his thoughts on her recent activities. The history between the U.S. President and the young activist is well-documented, with neither party shying away from expressing their opinions on each other.
Trump’s latest remarks were dismissive, as he called Greta a “troublemaker.” He expressed surprise at her apparent anger at such a young age, suggesting she should seek medical advice.
“She’s no longer concerned about the environment; she’s simply causing trouble. I think she should see a doctor. She seems so angry, and for someone so young, she should get help,” Trump asserted.
How Greta Thunberg Fired Back at Trump
Meanwhile, a plane carrying activists, presumably including Greta, departed Athens for Sweden. Despite her hectic schedule, Greta found time to address Donald Trump’s pointed remarks.
Taking to Instagram, Greta penned a fierce response to the President.
“I’ve heard of Donald Trump’s flattering opinions on my personality once more, and I appreciate his concerns for my mental well-being,” Greta shared.
She continued, “To Mr. Trump, I’m open to receiving your advice on handling my alleged ‘anger management issues’ since, given your remarkable history, it seems you might be dealing with something similar.”
