Because apparently Trumpy gets his news from Fox News instead of his security advisors, he managed to attribute a terrorist attack to Sweden instead of Sehwan in Pakistan. It's only a continent away Trumpy, only a continent:

Pundits jumped on the story offering their opinion about what Trump meant, didn't seek clarification before publishing.
Chalk another one up for fake news. Or as I'm calling it now #OUTRAGECIRCLEJERK
And you seriously believe that his "clarification" is convincing?

Unfortunately "That's not what he meant" (even though that's what he SAID) is getting to be a theme.
Now the makers of the documentary are saying they were misrepresented by Faux News.
And yes, McCain's testicles have re-emerged like the proverbial groundhog and he's going after Drumpf with a dull knife. It was embarrassing to hear him, Pence and Mattis contradict all Drumpf's bold claims in an attempt to reassure the Europeans. We're backing up on NATO except we're not. The press are the enemy of the people, except that they're not. Who is actually in charge?

I'm not really going to get into the pro or anti Trump lobby.
But...
Trump has to be one of the strangest presidents in the history of the US.

When you bracket it with places where there HAVE been attacks and say "last night" like something specific and shocking occurred, it is not unreasonable for people, particularly people IN the place, to say Waitwhat? What happened that we missed?
And yes, the left will take the opportunity to poke fun at him, because he's a despicable human being who lacks the experience or self-discipline for the position to which we've foolishly entrusted him. Since he has such disdain for the press* or men and women who are trying to protect the environment or the rights of vulnerable people and animals. It horrifies me that he calls anything he doesn't agree with "fake" even when there is scientific research, sworn testimony (or himself talking on video) to the contrary). I will never give him the benefit of the doubt because he's already proven that he IS rash and has no regard for the truth.
* full disclosure I have huge respect for journalists and detest the way they are being vilified when they work tirelessly to keep us informed. My father and sister are journalists and I grew up spending a lot of time in the newsroom. My dad's paper had to expose questionable activity by an elected official who had been a big supporter of the paper and a personal friend to him. There was never a question of the right thing to do in the circumstances, and the official lost his job, his marriage and his career. So to hear Drumpf dismiss respected papers of record like they were trash tabloids, just because they will not subscribe to his propaganda campaign, particularly irks me.
