Mnuchin says Greta Thunberg can't comment on economics until she has degree in economics

Mnuchin says Greta Thunberg is in no position to give economic advice until she’s gone to college for an economics degree.

So he's not qualified to comment on climate change or women's reproductive rights then?

He shouldn't be working foreign policy?

Seriously, Greta can't comment?

Agree with the tweeter's comments on Mnunchin - where is his medical degree on women reproductive systems and his degree on environmental degree on climate.

Greta can say what she wants, she's enttitled to express her opinion just as he can. Gosh, I can't stand these self righteous GOP cretins.

4. That's what I was thinking. He got a degree

from Yale in 1985 but it never says what it was in. He's just another rich kid whose father bought his way into Yale and then into a job at Goldman's Sachs.

That "little girl" can run circles around these guys.

2. Greta's reply back

Greta Thunberg@GretaThunberg

My gap year ends in August, but it doesn’t take a college degree in economics to realise that our remaining 1,5° carbon budget and ongoing fossil fuel subsidies and investments don’t add up. 1/3

So either you tell us how to achieve this mitigation or explain to future generations and those already affected by the climate emergency why we should abandon our climate commitments. 2/3

based on United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) emissions gap report. 3/3

3. Says the guy whose degree has secured him money and corruption. Not exactly anybody's role model.

5. Like who gives a sh** what Mnuchin says/thinks. n/t

6. Mnunchin has no right to stiffle anyone. And I'd say anyone working a minimum wage job now...

in America is far better equipped to comment on the economy then Mnunchin, who is a joke by the way in any body's book.

7. Don't forget that Donny's top economic adviser

is Cocaine Larry Kudlow, who has a degree in history from the University of Rochester. He studied economics later, but did NOT get a degree.

8. He should warm the crowd up with this thesis at the next MAGA rally

MAGAts love being told that they're only qualified to speak on a matter if they have a college degree in that area. It's a widespread belief among the red hats.

9. And this clown

should not speak about climate without a degree in "climate".

10. The guy that created a one trillion dollar budget shortfall

talking about economics... interesting.
