Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg did not hold back in responding to President Donald Trump’s recent criticism of her following her deportation from Israel. Trump had called Thunberg a “troublemaker” and suggested she has “anger management issues,” sparking widespread attention.
Thunberg, who had been detained alongside over 100 activists during the Global Sumud Flotilla mission attempting to break the Israeli blockade of Gaza, landed in Athens to a cheering crowd. She quickly addressed Trump’s comments on Instagram with a stinging reply, sarcastically offering to take his advice on anger management—a jab pointed at Trump’s own contentious history.
The long-running tension between the two figures intensified with this exchange, as Thunberg continued to advocate passionately for Palestinian rights and highlight alleged mistreatment during her detention. Meanwhile, Trump’s remarks only added fuel to the public debate.
