Greta Thunberg kicked Donald Trump when he was down with a great throwback

Thunberg Berlin

In early December 2019, Greta Thunberg was named Time Magazine’s Person of the Year. Greta, a teenager and an environmental activist, had already tangled with Donald Trump from a distance just a few months beforehand, when she attended some sessions at the United Nations, then got pushed aside by some Secret Service peeps when Trump arrived. She death-glared at him in one of the GIFs of the year, and I still believe that death-glare was one of the reasons why she was Person of the Year. Anyway, after Time Mag gave her that honor, Donald Trump tweeted this:

Yes, another outstanding moment for our country, when an ancient Nazi cyberbullies a child activist. Greta immediately trolled him and changed her Twitter bio to “A teenager working on her Anger Management problem. Currently chilling and watching a good old fashioned movie with a friend.” But she wasn’t done. No, Greta isn’t simply the Teenage Gaia, advocate for all things environment. She is also the Queen of Petty and she plays the long game.

All hail Queen Greta! Such a brilliant throwback, and she gets bonus points for kicking him when he was down in the electoral vote count. I’m sure he rage-consumed twelve cheeseburgers after this. (And Greta did this one day after the US formally withdrew from the Paris Climate Agreement.)

    One of her climate marches went past the building in which I work. I remember looking down at her and thinking how much determination and persistence and inspiration was wrapped up in that small person . And yes, Greta, revenge is best served cold 🙂
