When an adult has to make himself feel better or play to his 'fans' by mocking a child, it doesn't speak much of his character or his ability to argue the issues with substance.
When adults have to use CHILDREN to push their narrative to avoid push back, tells you exactly how pathetic they are.
[quote=QuakerBaker;56255201]Trump is a 73 year old man with immense wealth and power. Greta Thunberg is a 16 year old minor.
Greta may or may not have given Trump a dirty look at the UN...so Trump seeing her internet fame fron this responds "She seems like a very happy young girl looking forward to a bright and wonderful future. So nice to see!" In obvious reference to her intensity and passion on her beliefs of the environment being destroyed.
No...this isn't impeachable...nor is it end of world bad...but as the President of the United States do you really need to fire off sarcastic shots at a minor....a minor that has actually done an impressive job of getting her position known and more people moving forward.
Shouldn't the president just turn the other cheek with dignity in this case? Or even ask to meet with her to hear her side of the climate debate and listen? He could even ask her why she didn't criticize China as harshly as countries with far less egregious pollution actions.
You're asking far too much from trump, the only child at the UN Climate Summit.

IF the PResident's ego is so fragile he's intimidated by this child, all of you folks here dismissing this young lady have definitely not given her the credit she earned.
She taunted Trump and he reacted like a child...she's a child.......he is playing with a child.

Where is she from
Churchill never said that, but its funny seeing a teenager make so many heads explode.
In the other hand, I wonder if she is the best ambassador for their cause. Sure, she appeals to emotion with the "angry face' speeches etc, but is she the best they got?
