President Trump mocks Greta Thunberg’s Time Person of the Year honor: 'So ridiculous'
President Trump on Thursday mocked Greta Thunberg after the Swedish teenage climate activist was named Time magazine’s Person of the Year, edging out finalists including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Hong Kong protesters — and him.
Trump has long had a fixation on the Time nod, which he won in 2016. The following year, Trump claimed that Time editors had told him he would have “probably” be named Person of the Year again, conditional on an interview and photo shoot — which he said he refused. He also claimed he should have won the award in 2018.
“This is all wrong,” Thunberg said in her speech. “I shouldn’t be up here. I should be back in school on the other side of the ocean, yet you come to us young people for hope. How dare you.”Story continues“She seems like a very happy young girl looking forward to a bright and wonderful future,” the president wrote. “So nice to see!”
In an interview with Yahoo News in September, Thunberg said powerful men like Trump and Putin “want to silence” young climate activists like her.
