Oh, I get it. Because of Trumps statement this occured just like his statements cause #blm’rs and bernadettes to lose their minds and act like petulant children. Ergo....Trumps fault. Liblogic 101.

Trump:"You go to Brussels -- I was in Brussels a long time ago, 20 years ago, so beautiful, everything is so beautiful -- it's like living in a hellhole right now," he added. While it's true that parts of Belgium have been a hotbed for terrorism recruiting, Brussels is a major European city that is home to NATO and it's the capital of the European Union. It's also a popular tourist destination, known for its architecture, chocolate and waffles, among other things.

Trump's comment about the city inspired quite a backlash on social media, with Brussels denizens using the hashtag #hellhole, to defend their city. A Brussels alderman, Geoffroy Coomans, called him a buffoon on Twitter, and said he'd campaign against him.

Many posted picture-perfect scenes of the city, showing it to be anything but a #hellhole.
