    One time tweet about Sweden might not do too much damage, but this keeps up, who is next? Alt facts about England? Germany? Maybe China? you do not think that will be a problem for this country in the future if this keeps happening? Will the other world leaders think they are dealing with someone who have a couple screws loose or worse? Will they be able to trust what this administration tells them?

    And, apparently, the police interviewed in the Sweden film aired on Fox say it was edited...

    Im trying to understand your position on foreign affairs. If i can then maybe i can understand why you think this is a 'massive **** up'. Here was Mexico's response to their citizens being slaughtered by guns supplied by the US government

    I would call that tame since rly nothing happened. whats your opinion? hopefully i can come to understand your foreign affairs perspective better.

    Man, you are so right! How could this possibly hurt foreign relations with Sweden?

    If there's one thing any foreign leader absolutely loves, it's when the leader of the United States announces a non-existent terrorist attack in their nation in an effort to support a policy with which they disagree. In addition foreign leaders love it when trying to clarify the initial statement the president of the United States mentions a debunked documentary in which law enforcement from Sweden are on record as saying that their information was misrepresented in the program.

    There has never ever been a foreign leader who would ever a problem with that. What a great foreign policy move by Trump. The Swedes are absolutely loving it!

    But I do like how the article presents a photo of a burning building with no real context and a caption that reads "Swedish government are 'purposely covering up' the prepretrators of rape crimes to protect migrants." Spelling errors are from the original caption.

    “We expect the President of the United States to have sources of information that go beyond Fox News.” -Former prime minister Carl Bildt of Sweden.

    I knew trump supporters sucked his dick, but I did not know they were willing hold their gag reflex long enough to deprive their brain of enough oxygen.

    Sounded horrific. Probably a good idea to round up all immigrants and rush them out of the country.

    Oh, I guess that would be an overreaction...

    No... Trump was referring to a video he saw on a Fox tabloid show that someone misrepresented what Swedish police officers said.
