Trump cites non-existent terror attack
At Florida rally, The Howling Emperor Carrot refers to attack in Sweden that did not happen.
Possibly confusing Sweden with Sehwan in Pakistan
Sadly, there is a real place that deserved attention and empathy-
17 February 2017
"A suicide bomber detonated the bomb among crowds gathered for the busiest day of the week at the shrine to Sufi saint Lal Shahbaz Qalandar in Sehwan, a town in the southern Sindh province."

"You look at what's happening last night [sic] in Sweden," the Republican (Trump) told the crowds.
"They took in large numbers, they're having problems like they never thought possible."
Swedes were left scratching their heads over the remarks.
Former Swedish foreign minister Carl Bildt tweeted: "Sweden? Terror attack? What has he been smoking? Questions abound."

Because this is 2017 eventually #LastNightInSweden began to trend on Twitter as people made fun of Trump.

Really, I mean, really ?
We have the ex PM of Sweden pointing out the cluelessness of what should be our respected President. G.W. Bush may have been an elderly twerp, but Bush was not staggeringly oblivious. He could pull on his big boy's pants, when the situation demanded it.
(I happen to think G.W. Bush was an arsehole, and he is another self centered jerk.I was not expecting the G.O.P. to drop their standards so low as Trump.)
I am led to speculate on the possibility, that there is a paid script writer in Trump's office, (The universes know there is enough money given to Trump. They could afford one.)looking for ways to fill the media feed pipe with more media items. Push out maters that are crucial to our national intetest.
How can a citizen possibly keep up with all the horrible things that Republicans are doing to the laws and regulations put in place ? Between Trump and the media feed, there is a Niagara Falls worth of information produced.
