"It Looks Like A War Zone": Trump Vindicated After Violent Riot Erupts In Swedish Suburb

As we reported last night, just days after the media mocked Trump for his allegations of major problems with Swedish migrant policies, the president was vindicated after a violent riot broke out in the borough of Rinkeby, also known as "little Mogadishu." Now that the incident is over, in their "post-mortem" Swedish officials confirm that riots erupted in the "heavily immigrant Stockholm suburb" Monday night, as masked looters set cars ablaze and threw rocks at cops, injuring one police officer, Swedish officials said.
The violence erupted just days after President Trump was ridiculed during a Saturday campaign rally for mentioning Sweden alongside a list of European targets of terror. Trump later said his “You look at what’s happening last night in Sweden” remark was in response to a Fox News report on the country’s refugee crime crisis that aired on Friday evening.
"Sweden. They took in large numbers [of refugees],” Trump added at the Florida rally. “They’re having problems like they never thought possible.”
Sweden’s official Twitter account – which is operated by a different user each week – tweeted at Trump on Monday morning: “Hey Don, this is @Sweden speaking! It’s nice of you to care, really, but don’t fall for the hype. Facts: We’re OK!”
Events just hours later refuted that optimistic assessment.

The violence in Rinkeby began around 8 p.m., when officers arrested a suspect at an underground station on drug charges, The Local reported. A group soon gathered, hurling rocks and other objects at officers and prompting one cop to fire his gun “in a situation that demanded he use his firearm,” police spokesman Lars Bystrom said.

So instead of cooperating with the Russians, is Trump colluding with the Swedes, or is it the Muzzies?
I’m so confused.

Even late yesterday/last night, the MSM was mocking Trump for having suggested that there is anything bad going on in Sweden, related to immigrants. This just continues to prove his allegations of “fake news”, and the unwillingness of the MSM to do any research to try to report accurately.

Most of humanity is currently swimming in a cesspool of Leftist ideology. It’s my opinion that another World War is brewing. I give it 10 years before societies’ disintegrate and the world blows up. It will be relatively short, but brutal war. A new order rededicated to mostly traditional values will emerge to give humanity a noble enlightened purpose again. I hope we live to see the Leftist politicians that sold us out get Mussolini’ed.

SWEDENS capital was plunged into chaos on Monday as police were forced to fire at rioters after violence erupted. The scenes took place just hours after the countrys Prime Minister, Stefan Löfven, slammed Donald Trump for claiming Sweden was in crisis as a result of its liberal refugee policy.
Stockholm police were forced to fire a shot into the crowd in the hard-hit suburb of Rinkeby, after a mob of around 30 began attacking officers with rocks.
