Thunberg did not hold her response back and changed her bio, which read the following: “A teenager working on her anger management problem, currently chilling and watching a good old fashioned movie with a friend.”
This isn’t the first time when a young activist changed her Twitter bio. Back in September, after she gave a speech at the United Nations, Trump was quick to share his seemingly sarcastic thoughts about Thunberg on Twitter, “she seems like a very happy young girl looking forward to a bright and wonderful future. So nice to see!” said Mr. Trump, to which Greta responded by changing her bio to the following: “a very happy young girl looking forward to a bright and wonderful future.”
Trump faced a backlash from Twitter quickly.
Holly Figueroa O’Reilly, an op-ed writer for The Washington Post and The Guardian, said on Twitter: “Nothing like going after a young girl with Asperger Syndrome to drive home the point that you are fit for office,”

As for shame, bopping a man who is married to get a green card for you & ultimately your parents isn’t exactly awesome. But do you @Flotus! 😘 https://t.co/JqUYc0qiJH
