On Sunday, the Freedom Flotilla Coalition’s Madleen, crewed by 12 activists, including Thunberg and a minister of the European Parliament, was boarded by Israeli naval forces before it could reach a port in Gaza. The crew was detained, and the ship was brought to the Israeli port of Ashdod. The episode earned the attention of Trump, who was asked about her by the press.
“Well, she’s a strange person. She’s a young, angry person,” Trump said when asked if he had a message for the activist. “I don’t know if it’s real anger; it’s hard to believe, actually, but I saw what happened. She’s certainly different. Anger management. I think she has to go to an anger management class. That’s my primary recommendation for her.”
