Greta Thunberg says meeting with Trump 'would be a waste of time'
Yahoo! News ^ | November 1, 2019 | Dylan Stableford

Swedish teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg says she wouldn’t want to meet with President Trump even if given the opportunity.

“I don’t understand why I would do that,” Thunberg told Ellen DeGeneres in an interview that airs Friday on the “Ellen” show. “I don’t see what I could tell him that he hasn’t already heard. And I just think it would be a waste of time, really.”

Thunberg was in Los Angeles Friday for a protest rally by students opposed to new fossil-fuel production. She has drawn the ire of Trump, whose administration rolled back Obama-era environmental protections and withdrew the U.S. from the Paris climate accord. The president has frequently dismissed dire warnings from climate scientists, and in a 2012 tweet claimed “the concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing non-competitive.”

Actually, Trump could steal her thunder and most graciously agree to meet her....at a closed coal mine where the workers were put out of work!

Why is this stupid kid still in the news? Hasn’t she gone home yet? Her fifteen minutes should have been up even before they started.

With all this traveling around the world to preach her “climate activism”, I wonder how large her “carbon footprint” really is???

I’m voting for “Severe depression and in a few years is in a state psych ward”.

Like most of those on the far left, Greta insists that she is 100% correct (no debate is permitted). And her demands must be met immediately. Immediately, I tell you!

Well, that won’t happen. Some leftists respond to that by resorting to violence. Instead, I think Greta will start howling at the moon. And then the left will discard her like a slice of stale bread.

I agree. Go meet with the pantywaist who will give lip service to your ravings while never hitting a single one of their targets for “fighting climate change”.

As if man should control the earth’s temperature.

Stale bread. lol

Funny but also sad and true.

She will find that she went from hero to zero as soon as the next new flavor comes.

Conservatives can handle such fleeting fame better because they have real family and friends to fall back on.

Not the case so much with these loons.

Find me a young liberal activist and I’ll likely find you a messed up family unit.

No one does care what she says except the fake-crisis media.

You’re right, I shouldn’t hate her. She is product of institutional propaganda. Thanks.

Curious, how did she get to L.A.? Did she sail to the East Coast and then ride a bike, or sail to the West Coast and walk? Or is she just like every other hypocritical commie climate moon bat out there that only wants other people to stop using fossil fuels?

Why would Trump meet with a retarded fanatic? It would be an insult to every one of his voters.

True that. Conservatives are also, by and large, not self-righteous. We don’t lose our minds when someone disagrees with us.

Quick story: Awhile back I was at a dinner party given by a liberal friend of mine. All was going well. Then someone happened to mention Trump. Our liberal host immediately jumped up from her chair and started pacing the room, yelling and waving her hands.

I thought she was going to have a stroke. Or maybe attack the person who had mentioned Trump. If I had the ability to do so, I think I would have tased her.

ROFLMAO!!!

Well, a man has to know what he is.

My insecurities leave me thin skinned to opposing viewpoints.

At 51, it is a hard habit to change.

I VERY MUCH admire folks that are secure and comfortable in their own skin.

I go back and forth and might not have acted much different from the lunatic you just mentioned on any given night!!
