Trump again attacks teen climate activist Greta Thunberg, who clapped back at him on Twitter last week
President Donald Trump is using his Twitter account to once again attack teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg, this time to amplify a snide dismissal of her public appearances as “acting.”
What an actress! the user, @Opinion8dKellie, tweeted, adding, I wont be held hostage by someone who just got a learners permit. Sorry kiddo!Keep up the great work Kellie! he wrote. The president is a noted climate change skeptic who has resisted large-scale solutions to what scientists describe as an escalating threat to the world. He has falsely claimed climate change was a hoax perpetuated by the Chinese.
She seems like a very happy young girl looking forward to a bright and wonderful future. So nice to see! https://t.co/1tQG6QcVKOIn an interview with the Scandinavian talk show Skavlan, Thunberg said she interpreted Trumps words as sarcastic but said that of course he would write something like that.I mean, you can interpret it in many different ways, she said. But I mean, I knew that sometime he was probably going to say something about me. It was like, it doesnt make any difference, in a way.
I was stopped because suddenly he came in and security went, You have to step to the side. And I just wondered what was going on, she said. And then he showed up. I think I was very shocked. I honestly dont understand why adults would choose to spend their time mocking and threatening teenagers and children for promoting science, when they could do something good instead, she wrote on Twitter on Sept. 25. I guess they must simply feel so threatened by us.
