   That's misleading.  Trump referred to SOMETHING.  The biased lying MSM
   chose a specific classification, "terrorism", as if Trump had
   specifically said it.
   Trump was speaking extemporaneously, which of course he has a lot of
   experience doing.  But nevertheless, he was vague about what had
   happened.  But the MSM decided to focus on the "terrorism" angle,
   precisely because they knew it was false:  They knew there had been no
   obvious 'terrorism' incident, which made it useful to misrepresent
   Trump's intent.

   Blaming how the media gets it wrong won't help you, Razer.
   >The New York Times: " President Trump escalated his attack on Sweden's
   migration policies on Monday, doubling down on his suggestion — based
   on a Fox News report — that refugees in the Scandinavian country were
   behind a surge in crime and terrorism."
   At least that references sounds relatively accurate:  There IS a "surge
   in crime" for which Muslim immigrants are obviously responsible.
   Which WAS the subject he was discussing when he brought up that (also
   non-existent) "Crime Wave" by immigrants to Sweden
   Definitely not "non-existent".

   This cite is, of course, merely a single incident.

     But you need to define what YOU refer to when you mean "crime wave".
