Since few there seem to like or support her agenda, was her appointment
rigged in the first place?

“The budget that passed included the Anti-Immigrant Far Right Party”

That is TOTAL BS. The party they’re referring to is the Swedish Democrats. They are DEMOCRATS and therefore they only want what’s best for Sweden...to call them ‘far right’ is SLANDER.

My handy-dandy Newspeak media translation guide for political ideology labels:

Media labels vs. Reality:
Blue = Red
Socialist/Left-wing = Stalinist
Liberal = Marxist
Moderate/(Centrist) = Socialist
Conservative = Liberal
Far-Right = Moderate <—————————
Ultraright/Racist/Bigot = Conservative Mainstream


So it’s a moderate party.

LOL, that wasn’t directed at you, it was directed at the Left, who think they own the term “Democrat”.

Why did she willingly fall into the trap that Åkesson set? Enough abstains to make her PM, then humiliate her with the same abstains voting for the budget. Reason alone to keep her out of the PM seat.

She had to step down when the Greens left her coalition.

The Sweden Democrats that the Swedish Left is so hyper-ventilating about would be regarded as very moderate by US standards. Here’s their platform

https://sd.se/english/

They want an end to Third World immigration and “refugees”. They don’t want immigrants who would immediately just go on welfare. They want welfare benefits to be limited to Swedish citizens.
