So "what's happening last night in Sweden" does not refer to a specific incident.

[Eugene]

CNN reports that the White House deputy press secretary
says that Trump was referring to rising crime in Sweden
in general, not a specific incident.

Rising crime last night in Sweden. Yeah, that's the ticket!

UPDATE: The story just changed. He says he was referring to a Faux Noise report.

1. I looked it up. There is no Bowling Green Sweden or an Atlanta Sweden

Sorry. Three strikes folks.

[Rollo]

3. What, no Chicago in Sweden?

Who would have guessed that?

[Ms. Toad]

2. You're right. That explanation doesn't fit with the very specific time reference Trump made. n/t

4. When you pull something out of your ass...

There's a REALLY, REALLY good chance it's shit.

5. A guy selling fake Rolex watches on a Times Square street corner

comes up with a higher percentage of reliably true statements than Donald Trump does.

6. It must be

that "last night" was referring to when he read whatever best, most unbelievable but totally not fake news talking point he was regurgitating from the real journalists over at infowars.

7. Did they hire Joe Isuzu ???

What the blusterfuck.

8. CNN should report on fake news - it came from batshit crazyman Alex Jones.

Yes that is right, Trump is listening to Alex Jones!

God help us all!

9. Oh? Was there a sudden jump in Sweden's crime rate Friday night?

[Mc Mike]

10. Maybe Swedish internal security forces quietly foiled some

far right attack that was meant to be pinned on moslem extremists, and his speech wasn't updated by his genius staff.

11. It refers to a filmaker, interviewing the Anders Breivik crowd in Sweden

and the ensuing islamophobic propaganda that he made. Trump saw it on faux, and ran with it as if it were truth and a real event(s).

This is such a dumb response - as it is easily refutable by Sweden. Dude (film maker?) claims areas of Sweden are run under Sharia (they are not), and that there are "no go" regions throughout Sweden (there are none.)

Think project Veritas. Trump is so gullible and dumb.

12. Yep. He believes the worst of the worst "news" sources.
