Didn't surprise me at all. I just smiled when I read the headline. Then I realised this wasn't a post by The Onion and it was genuine. Is he getting all his ideas from whatever late night film he watches or from comedy sites now?
Scandinavians are shy and polite, they would never do such a thing. The Vikings weren't wild, obnoxious, nor careless. They were meticulous, persistent, well organised... when overpowered -- shield wall, when ready, hit hard and without mercy then back off again, reassess.
Does he realize he doesn’t control other countries? He feels he is so powerful that he can dictate what other countries do and they are just laughing at him.
I’d assume his toxic Republican cabal are shielding him from what most people on the planet think and are saying about him. Fox wouldnt report on what people thought if it didn’t fit their agenda anyway ?
If's he intentionally gives up on the planet and letting Russia, China, among other political entities run the planet he's doing a great job. Qatar giving him a plane is for Russia's sake not ours.
That's messed up. This orange snowflake thinks he can dictate what other countries can do? I wonder if someone in his circle of comrades is involved in some kind of competition -" what's the dumbest thing we can get this old loser to do"
Is there not one adult in the bunch? Are they running a daycare pandering to a bratty toddler? Where is their dignity? Where is their shame? Where is ours?
A local politicians reply: They are the ones who depend on our garbage collection, our heat, our water. And our sewage treatment, so they want to get rid of it – then I just say good luck.
Such an ego! What did the Swedes do to deserve this letter? He is meddling where he shouldn't be! Doesn't he have enough to do running our country? He's destroyed so much, there's nothing left to govern. There's always golf! Not one sentiment about 8-10,000,000 people losing their insurance.
I wonder why he is just targeting Sweden ? Our anti discrimination laws do go a bit further than the EU laws but I am sure he must be just as offended by those laws. Maybe the bully thinks it's easier to threaten Sweden than the whole of the EU.
Hmm.. as the saying goes, "the blind leading the blind". #SleepyDon #DozingDonnie #DementiaDonald I don't think there's one sane person in that entire regime!
was hilarious, one local politican more or less just said "good luck without trash pickup, electricity, sewer system, any kind of rebuilding or reconstruction on the house or property."
Idiots, I’d tell the US embassy to go fek themselves. They can stuff the communication up where the sun don’t shine and if they don’t like it they can close the embassy and fek off back home.
The fact that what once could be satire, is now real would be hilarious if it wasn't so utterly frightening at the same time. I feel like he could start a war with Europe for European countries refusing to remove DEI at this point in time, and I wouldn't even be surprised.
No, it absolutely shouldn't happen. It's absurde that he thinks he can try and enforce his ideology on foreign nations. I'm just glad across the channel sanity prevails - even if our own government are pandering to the 🍊idiot.
1) he didn’t Send that letter if it HAS a scintilla of sentence Structure, correct speling AND no WEIRD capitalizations!!!!!
2) do they happen to have a nearby gulf that needs a new name?
DEI programs are necessary to correct the existing bias where less able & less qualified white straight men are preferred over more able & better qualified non white/straight/men.
HE THINKS he's in control of the WORLD!!! TELLING other countries what laws they should keep or get rid of!! HE REALLY DOES believe he's 'KING OF THE WORLD'!!..His derangement has become COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTROL!!! CONGRESS SCOTUS..DO YOUR JOBS!! IMPEACH THIS MANIAC!!!
I initially assumed there was an organisation they had mixed it up with not that the US is trying to control policies in other countries via their Embassies!!
No one who can use the 25th Amendment against him will do it. They think he's going to die soon or be incapacitated, so they're trying to squeeze every bit of what they can get out of him before he keels over.
I always wondered about that. I think that it's more likely to be fatal with the kind of bullets people use now that are armor piercing and hollow point.
We can't have him murdered. He'd be a martyr. That would be horrible. After he's dead, it'll take MAGA a few years to die off, but it would be much longer if he's murdered.
The 25th Amendment could remove him because he's mentally ill and has dementia. He can't be removed by impeachment unless and until the Democrats/Progressives regain control of both houses of Congress.
What does America trade that Europeans would want anyway, other than weapons. Their food is garbage, their cars are junk, their science, math, healthcare and green energy are in the dark ages.
What does that leave? Tourists?
This has to be the most outrageous example of hubris I've seen. And this coming from *DIPLOMATS*! 🙄 Our embassy is there as essentially a GUEST of that country. And we then have the gall to attempt to give orders on how they run things?!?
Who the hell does he think he is?He cannot tell other countries what they can or can't do with their country
The Republican.
S need to get their head out of their ass.
And start pushing back on this maniac
Sure, they can have trump visit Sweden. Just that part in the middle of Sweden where no one lives... and it's the dead of winter... in the arctic circle... all by himself...
It gets even better: They made it a condition of their contracts with the city of Stockholm, which the city can't accept now... So no gas, no water and no electricity for the embassy.
As a swede I can only laugh at this nonsense. On the other hand, JD Dunce coming here to school our leaders on democracy and freedom of speech is insulting on a whole new level.
You can take the boy out of the Holler but you can't take the Holler out of the boy. Being a Yale law school grad and Veep is somehow not enough to prevent uncouth and disparaging words flying out of his mouth.
And DEIA also helps the more mobility-challenged, including the elderly. And DEIA also helps with including women, and women in the country are very active in political leadership positions.
Basically, the Trump regime is not popular with a lot of people in Sweden. But I think a lot of the right-wing Swedes are more supportive of Trump’s culture wars & racism than they admit in polls.
I don't really count Asians as brown/black personally and typically they are not targets of Trump's anti-DEI rage. Regardless, I was mostly being sarcastic. I'm well aware of the benefits of immigration and DEI practices. My point was Sweden has a very small minority population so this seems silly
Sweden used to have a very, very small non-European minority population until 20-30 years ago. Nowadays, at least in the elementary schools in its big 3 cities, it would surprise me if fewer than 10% of the students are POCs.
oh we did, well officialy the respons have been "we wont even bother to respond to this stupidity" inofficially we have had politicians just say "good luck without any electricity, any trash pickup, any working sewer system" and so on :P
Well they just did the same to Denmark, didn‘t they? Got more or less the same reaction. These things are nothing more than flash grenades, they know very well this is complete BS. Just flooding the zone while casually committing the really big crimes under the radar.
Old news. Trump is a moron who thinks "Leader of the Free World" is an actual, literal title. He thinks being POTUS gives him some kind of authority over other countries. He's done this sort of thing before, and makes a fool of himself every time.
Does he really think he's the king of the world??
This dude needs some serious mental health improvements, but I'm sure he won't take care of himself, he doesn't care about anyone but his own ego.
Let's hope his ego consumes him entirely so the planet can be a better place for all of us.
My God. He's nothing short of a lunatic.
The last man that attempted world dominance did not fare well. He'd know that if he was a student of history, or a student of... anything.
oh we are, I live in Stockholm and everyone I know are laughing at this bullshit, and I know local politicians are just going "not even gonna bother to respond to this insanity"
OH YEA!!! They're filling his head with ALL SORTS of 'I AM KING' ideas, and he's believing it!! His small and deranged brain can't understand or distinguish between 'grandeur' and 'normal' thinking... a definite symptom of 'DELUSIONS OF GRANDEUR' that's OUT OF CONTROL!!

Go forth and lie
but stop your meddling
You mean like China, Japan, Greenland, the whole EU, and of course Canada...oh and Mexico...
But aside from them...............
The USA has elves in the attic at the home where the snowplows never reach.
Skitstövel Dumbom Donny does it again!
Svenska says pound sand.
Now he thinks he's Boss of the world....
You know you're never going to get rid of him, don't you?
You should have put him away when you had the chance...
...
We have no spine.

stockholm is perplexed bc they still can’t quite believe he’s this dumb. fuck all the way off 🖕🏼
Suomi thanks. For real.
The response is basicly "no, and if you persist we can turn off electricity, sewage,water and trach pickup"

Except not so funny.
So bizarre. Again, isn’t this 25th amendment territory? He’s clearly insane and unable to understand his place in the world.
We can but hope.
“Of course, we’ll not sign it, we won’t return it, we’ll do nothing about it. So now it’s up to the embassy to decide what happens next.”
in other words, its so fucking silly that there we are not even gonna officially respond to it.
What does that leave? Tourists?
About opportunities and not outputs.

Around 2% of people residing in Sweden were born in Africa; and then there are also children of the parents.
Around 9% of people residing in Sweden were born in Asia; and then there are also children of the parents.
The vast majority of those two communities would be POCs.
The main reason Trump & Co use Sweden as an example to attack at times is because of the “brown” and/or Muslim residents of the country.
“Of course, we’ll not sign it, we won’t return it, we’ll do nothing about it. So now it’s up to the embassy to decide what happens next.”
Gee willikers, that sure is an impressive mental gymnastics routine.
Invoke the 25th Amendment before he could do any more international damage.

Then maybe a persona non grata threat to the ambassadors, for being jerk-offs.
From a US citizen, I hope they continue to do so. Trump thinks he's king of the world and our country is a dungeon.
