President Donald Trump on Thursday publicly mocked the teenage climate change activist Greta Thunberg.
He made a tweet, saying the 16-year-old Swede who has inspired protesters worldwide has "anger management" issues.
Thunberg, who was named Time magazine's Person of the Year earlier this week over Trump, has sternly castigated world leaders for not doing enough to combat climate change and memorably stared down Trump at the UN General Assembly in September. She has been open about her diagnosis of Asperger's, calling it a "superpower" that helps her activism.

"So ridiculous. Greta must work on her Anger Management problem, then go to a good old fashioned movie with a friend! Chill Greta, Chill!" Trump wrote Thursday morning, responding to a tweet congratulating Thunberg on being named Person of the Year.
Trump frequently attacks and mocks political enemies on Twitter, and previously went after Thunberg in September, though his Thursday morning broadside was still jarring coming from a sitting US president against a teenager.
Following the President's tweet, Thunberg updated her Twitter bio to reflect Trump's comments: "A teenager working on her anger management problem. Currently chilling and watching a good old fashioned movie with a friend."
