During her recent visit to Washington, DC, Swedish teen climate activist Greta Thunberg was hailed by Barack Obama as “one of our planet’s greatest advocates.” When the two met prior to her speech before Congress, the former president assured her of his own environmental bona fides with this: “You and me, we’re a team.”

Weird camera angle in that picture. Probably low because Greta is 4’6” tall and they didn’t want to show Obama towering over her.

Typical Dem: “You little people need to change the way you live your horrible lives, but I am too important to do that myself.” Pathetic.
