Greta Thunberg’s blistering response to Donald Trump after calling her ”strange”

The feud between President Donald Trump and Swedish climate icon Greta Thunberg is far from over.

After Trump publicly dismissed the 22-year-old activist as “strange” and “too angry,” Greta hit back — and her response is making waves across the internet.

Greta Thunberg has found herself at the center of international drama once again — and this time, Donald Trump wasted no time throwing in his two cents.

The 22-year-old Swedish climate activist was deported from Israel on June 10 after she was allegedly detained by Israeli forces while sailing toward Gaza with humanitarian aid.

Thunberg claims she and 11 other activists were “kidnapped in international waters”, a claim Israeli officials flatly deny — calling the mission ”a selfie yacht” and nothing more than “a media provocation” designed for publicity.

“She’s a young, angry person”

In a pre-recorded video, shared on Instagram shortly after the group’s interception, Thunberg can be heard saying: “If you see this video we have been intercepted and kidnapped in international waters by the Israeli occupational forces — or forces that support Israel.”

Speaking to reporters on June 10, Trump was asked whether he and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had discussed Thunberg during a phone call they had earlier that day.

”She’s a strange person,” he told reporters. “She’s a young, angry person. I don’t know if it’s real anger; it’s hard to believe actually.”

He didn’t stop there.

“I saw what happened. She’s certainly different. Anger management. I think she has got to go to anger management class. That’s my primary recommendation for her.”

Trump also dismissed her accusations outright, saying:

“I think Israel has enough problems without kidnapping Greta Thunberg.”

Greta’s response

Many felt Trump had crossed a line, taking personal jabs at Greta rather than challenging her views — but in true Trump fashion, no one was exactly shocked.

After being detained by Israeli forces, Greta was ultimately deported.

During a brief stopover in France on her way back to Sweden, Thunberg was met by a swarm of reporters — and they couldn’t resist asking what she thought about Trump’s latest remarks.

“Well, I think the world needs a lot more young angry women to be honest — especially with everything going on right now. That’s the thing we need the most,” she fired back.

Pressed on whether she admitted to entering Israel illegally, Thunberg clarified:

“I did not recognize that I entered the country illegally. I made it very clear in my testimony that we were kidnapped on international waters and brought there against our own will into Israel.”

Thunberg was part of a humanitarian mission with the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, aiming to deliver supplies and draw global attention to the suffering in Gaza.

Didn’t mince words

In addition to Thunberg, the boat carried several other notable passengers: Rima Hassan, a member of the European Parliament; journalist Yanis Mhamdi; Al Jazeera presenter Omar Faiad; and FFC organizers Yasemin Acar and Thiago Ávila.

“This was a mission of attempting to once again bring aid to Gaza, which is desperately needed,” she explained.

“But also to send solidarity and say that we see you, we see what is happening and we cannot accept just witnessing all this and doing nothing — that can never be an option.”

She didn’t mince words on the current crisis, either:

“Right now [it is] more important than ever because of the siege and because of the systematic starvation of over two million people, and the full-blown live stream genocide.”

Israel, meanwhile, continues to strongly deny any accusations of genocide.
