Greta Thunberg Trolls Trump With Changed Twitter Bio

by Maggie Way | September 25, 2019

Teen vegan climate activist and wave-maker Greta Thunberg has changed her Twitter bio in an apparent response to Trump’s comments on her heart-felt and powerful UN address.

Thunberg’s address to the UN climate change summit was delivered on Monday, and has since been viewed over 2 million times on The Guardian’s YouTube channel. After Thunberg’s speech, Donald Trump tweeted a comment which appeared to be intended to belittle the 16-year-old activist.

“She seems like a very happy young girl looking forward to a bright and wonderful future,” he wrote.

“So nice to see!”

Thunberg briefly changed her Twitter bio since to read “A very happy young girl looking forward to a bright and wonderful future.”

She has now reverted her bio to the usual “16 year old climate and environmental activist with Asperger’s.”

Greta Thunberg & Donald Trump At The UN Climate Summit

Thunberg and the US president briefly crossed paths at the UN Climate Summit on Monday, but did not interact. However, footage of what appeared to be Thunberg glaring at Trump when he entered the meeting, recorded by The Telegraph has since gone viral.

Trump did not stay long at the Climate Summit and did not take in any of the speeches. He instead went to a panel he arranged to have take place at the same time as the summit, which focused on religious freedoms.
