i seriously don't even have it in me to keep on caring about this, trump watched a piece on fox concerning a largely debunked documentary. he didn't not predict anything and he does not have his tiny finger on the pulse of sweden. further, he is not president of sweden, he's president of the us. so while he was going on about sweden, maybe there's some other occurrences that have recently gone down of the terror persuasion in our actual country? our actual continent? wonder why he's not addressing what happened in quebec.

"IN QUEBEC FOLKS, OF ALL PLACES. a guy goes into a mosque and starts firing?! KILLING FATHERS WITH THEIR CHILDREN? WHAT IS GOING ON WITH QUEBEC? what's going on with the synagogues and jewish community centers? YUGE INCREASE IN BOMB THREATS - towards the jewish community - IN AMERICA FOR GODSAKES."

nope nothing like that. i guess fox needs to broaden it's coverage.

 

 

To be fair I'm still waiting for his tweet on the mosque.

Trump clarifies 'Sweden' remark, says he was referring to Fox News report

Sweden Democrats: Trump was right

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/02/23/sweden-democrats-trump-was-right.html

 

Two leading Swedish politicians have a message for President Trump’s critics: He’s right.

Per Jimmie Akesson and Mattias Karlsson, both leaders of the Sweden Democrats, penned a Wall Street Journal op-ed on Wednesday supporting Trump’s characterization of a Muslim immigrant-led crime crisis in Sweden.

“Mr. Trump did not exaggerate Sweden’s current problems,” Akesson and Karlsson wrote. “If anything, he understated them.”

Trump was ridiculed by many after he gave a speech Saturday citing Sweden among a list of European countries affected by the scourge of Islamic terror. Referring to the massive number of Middle Eastern refugees that have poured into the country, Trump said Sweden was “having problems like they never thought possible.” Some Swedish politicians openly derided Trump’s portrayal of the country – but riots in a heavily immigrant suburb of Stockholm on Monday evening put an end to most of the mockery.

“Riots and social unrest have become a part of everyday life,” Akesson and Karlsson wrote. “Police officers, firefighters and ambulance personnel are regularly attacked. Serious riots in 2013, involving many suburbs with large immigrant populations, lasted for almost a week. Gang violence is booming. Despite very strict firearms laws, gun violence is five times as common in Sweden, in total, as in the capital cities of our three Nordic neighbors combined.”

They added: “Anti-Semitism has risen. Jews in Malmo are threatened, harassed and assaulted in the streets. Many have left the city, becoming internal refugees in their country of birth.”

The Sweden Democrats duo ended the op-ed with a warning for the United States.

“For the sake of the American people,” Akesson and Karlsson wrote, “with whom we share so many strong historical and cultural ties, we can only hope that the leaders in Washington won’t make the same mistakes that our socialist and liberal politicians did.”

You are confusing things a bit.

 

Nature boy posted a link not to any "facts", but to an opinion piece. Opinion pieces are fine, but it's important to know the background of who is writing the opinion. 

 

I was merely pointing out the people's backgrounds. You can value their opinion to whatever degree you like.

Lots of information out there about what is happening in Sweden despite the best efforts to sweep it under the carpet..

Well, to be fair, lots of disinformation claiming 'something' not really quantifiable is being swept under the carpet is being put out there. That is probably a more accurate way to put it.

[Boiler 47,514]

This has been going on for years, not a Trump issue.

Ain't that the truth!!  Not to hard to figure out who is causing the problems. I am thankful Trump is calling attention to this so we don't end up in the same situation,or worse.

You should be ashamed of yourself. Trump would be. Have a little dignity.

Except that it is a Trump issue. Fox News has been trying to smear a patina of legitimacy to the "all Muslims are out to convert or kill you" nonsense and Donald Trump has offered falling for the latest in a long line of such opinion pieces on that channel as his defense for a thoughtless comment and what he really meant when he implied an Islamic Terrorist attack had taken place in Sweden the night before. Sad!

You have been talking to Nils Bildt haven't you?

 

Bwahahahaha!

 

(Hint: Google Bill O'Reilly Nils Bildt. It's a hoot!)

[ready4ONE 5,400]

Bump.

 

Come on now, the President prefers Fox for intelligence assessments, fake news to match his tastes, and apparently getting a little sunshine blown up his posterior. No response to that stalwart of truth, justice, fairness and balance bringing in a fake Swedish expert to support the President in implying Sweden is falling apart due to the influx of refugees?

 

Bring it on! Gotta here some excuses from the middle of the road Trump and Faux News apologists!

How about you make a reasonable assertion and then we can go from there?  Nobody has a clue what you are bumping and chirping about.

[spookyturtle 9,466]

Funny how Fox News is suddenly credible now when it was considered a joke with the VJ Obama hater crowd. How times have changed.

Of course you don't. Google - Bill O'Reilly + Nils Bildt and all will be revealed. ROFLMAO!

 

You know when someone is a cheater, or a liar, they develope a tendency to project what they are doing on to others around them. This is what Dear Leader, and his favorite source for 'alternative news' Fox are doing.
