As a response to Donald Trump's lies about a Swedish attack,

Will the Swedish government send millions of packages of Swedish Fish to attack the USA? Be afraid. Be very afraid.

The doddering old fool posted photos of bags of Swedish candy trying to top his taco truck jokes back during the campaign.

Just look at the transcript of his remarks at the rally, you liver spotted old fool--no mention of a Swedish attack.

You look at what’s happening in Germany, you look at what’s happening last night in Sweden.”

“Sweden, who would believe this? Sweden. They took in large numbers. They’re having problems like they never thought possible.

Saying that they are having problems like they never thought possible is the same thing as saying that there was an attack?  No it isn't you rock headed simpleton.

MM must be parroting someone else's dishonest misrepresentation of Trump's comments. In the past I'd have guessed the dishonest source was MMfA or STinkProgress, but after more than a year of the MSM dishonestly reporting Trump's speeches, source of the dishonesty could be some one in the MSM or in ProgMedia.

It takes a special lack of awareness of recent crimes by "refugees" throughout EuroLand and by Muslims in Scandinavia for even more years not to see through the dishonest misrepresentation of Trump's comments, though. Evidently MM is that kind of unaware.

It's a frequent habit among primitives that they hear a fragment of something, a remnant of a word, and extrapolate from that something either they want to hear or they hope is true.

I of course do the same thing, but I have an excuse; being deaf, I'm not likely to "get" the entire gist of a comment or remark, and have to mentally "fill in the blanks."  Sometimes I guess correctly, other times I don't.

But when trying to imagine what was said, I always keep in mind I'm not so much interested in what I want to hear, but in what's actually the truth (of what was said).

I think Minnesota Moses did this; he heard part of a word or a couple of random fragments of a comment, and extrapolating from that created something to fit his agenda, i.e., disliking President Trump.

At his age, he ought to know better, and at his age, he should be making peace with people and things he doesn't like, rather than futilely striking out against them.
