On Saturday, Donald Trump criticised the open border policies of European countries, suggesting that countries who had allowed “thousands” of refugees in were putting themselves at risk of being attacked by terrorists.
He referenced the recent terrorist attacks linked to ISIS militants in Germany, Belgium and France.
But he also included a Scandinavian country on his list, leaving the world baffled.
"You look at what's happening in Germany, you look at what's happening last night in Sweden. Sweden, who would believe this?" Trump said.

You know, it wouldn't be so bad if he just once, even just once, admitted he got it wrong. Just a *teeny* little bit of humility. But it's like he has to win at all costs. No matter what. He cannot and will not cede a point. EVER. Even when caught red-handed. I think he'd earn a fair bit of cred and respect if he said, "my bad, I got it wrong - regardless.....blah, blah" etc.
I'm not going to pretend Trump's not an idiot because he is but it's not exactly like things are rosy in Sweden either. They are struggling to manage. There is a significant problem of gang crime linked to immigrants. Grenade attacks have become a common problem in Malmo and there has been the same depressing pattern of sex assaults at music festivals etc. There was also that awful live streamed gang rape in facebook.
