Thunberg has been the biggest voice who has addressed the biggest issue the planet has been facing this year and while many people admire her and her achievements, others do not. President trump tweeted, "So ridiculous. Greta must work on her anger management problem, then got to a good old fashioned movie with a friend! Chill, Greta, Chill!" It is inevitable that President Trump dislikes Thunberg due to her goals at such a young age. Though many other celebrities sided with her, like former First Lady, Michelle Obama. She tweeted, "... don't let anyone dim your light. Like the girls Ive met in Vietnam and all over the world, you have so much to offer us all. Ignore the doubters and know that millions of people are cheering you on." This tweet was powerful, hearing from a very inspirational and amazing human being.
I personally think that it is amazing that a sixteen-year-old girl created a world-wide movement for climate change. She once stated, "We can't just continue living as if there was no tomorrow, because there is a tomorrow," The fact that she wants to motivate everyone to make a change in the world is very inspirational. As the President of the United States, Trump should be siding with Thunberg by wanting to change the world. President Trump's jealousy will continue to be alive while Thunberg continues to make history. It is devastating to see that while the American Society has been teaching us to reinforce our education by using our voices to make a difference, we are being shut by the people who should be helping. I hope Thunberg grows to be a women working in the government to help change the issues that are clearly not being addressed.
It’s hard to believe that the U.S. President doesn’t have the maturity to handle criticism from a 16 year old girl. He goes to his usual tactic of bullying her online, like he has tweet bullied thousands of people who expressed any criticism of him. This girl has a genuine passion about global warming and trying to save the planet for the future. She has criticized trump and his response shows he can't control his impulses and anger. He seems to have a need to demonize anyone who opposes him no matter how young or powerless they are. He's the President of the world's most powerful country yet he actually seems threatened by the power of this girl's words. John Gartner, Ph.D., is a psychologist who taught at Johns Hopkins University Medical School for 28 years says, “Trump suffers from malignant narcissism, a diagnosis [that is] far more toxic and dangerous than mere narcissistic personality disorder because it combines narcissism with three other severely pathological components: paranoia, sociopathy, and sadism. When combined, this perfect storm of psychopathology defines the ‘quintessence of evil…’.”
