Last night in Sweden?
 
#LastNightInSweden: celebrities and the Swedish mock Donald Trump's bizarre claims

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/content/d...4IOPfiqeog.jpg

Donald Trump has baffled everyone from politicians to celebrities with the strange claims he made about Sweden over the weekend.

Although he has insisted his reference was to an as yet unidentified Fox News story, many have been left trying to figure out exactly what he meant.

"You look at what's happening last night in Sweden," Mr Trump said. "Sweden. Who would believe this? Sweden. They took in large numbers. They're having problems like they never thought possible."

No incident occurred in Sweden and the country's baffled government asked the US State Department to explain.

"My statement as to what's happening in Sweden was in reference to a story that was broadcast on @FoxNews concerning immigrants & Sweden," Mr Trump said in a tweet on Sunday.

A White House spokeswoman told reporters after the incident that Mr Trump had been referring generally to rising crime and not a specific incident in the Scandinavian country, after Fox News linked reported rising crime rates in the country to immigration.

Of course, jokes and memes sprung up on social media and people sprang up to share their views about what on Earth happened in Sweden.

It's genuinely terrifying that his supporters believe they can make up their own news, accuse the actual news of not covering it in order to get them all shut down, and then just have everyone accept their versions of events.

The major problem is that much of the US population is very inward-looking... A lot of people never leave their own STATE, in their entire lives, let alone the country and there is a large amount of ignorance and misunderstanding about the world in general. So basically the news can report pretty much anything and it'll be believed by the unquestioning ones. For example, that white people "can't go into Birmingham because it's 100% immigrants now!". Remember that one?

The scary part of course is that now, one of the gullible / unquestioning ones is the ****ing president.

He does not Qualify things on a live Mic.
so he is right to to say did they see Sweden
(but missed out the Docu' report on FoxNewsHD)

I hope todays Daily Politics BBC2HD mid day
has obtained a clip of that Fox news docu.
If Not Ch4HD 7PM
or SkyNewsHD,

When The President talks to the nation
he reads from a script.


So you will get used to him.
And you have * 8 Fantastic years *


In a way
like you all got used to me.
