The President of the United States, Donald Trump, has mocked Swedish climate change activist Greta Thunberg by telling her to ‘chill’ and work on her ‘anger management problem.’

Trump made the mockery remark against the 16-year-old activist a day after she was named Time magazine’s person of the year.

He was reacting to a tweet from his actress friend Roma Downey congratulating Greta, who has Asperger’s syndrome, on the award, when he made the remark.

Trump wrote via his verified Twitter handle @realdonaldtrump:

‘So ridiculous. ‘Greta must work on her Anger Management problem, then go to a good old fashioned movie with a friend! Chill Greta, Chill!’
