    To paraphrase Jeffrey Ross, they appear to have the sexual chemistry of Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman.

    And now, Sweden.

    In these times of trial, I stand with Sweden.

    During a campaign-style rally on Saturday in Florida, Mr. Trump issued a sharp if discursive attack on refugee policies in Europe, ticking off a list of places that have been hit by terrorists.

    “You look at what’s happening,” he told his supporters. “We’ve got to keep our country safe. You look at what’s happening in Germany, you look at what’s happening last night in
    Sweden. Sweden, who would believe this?”

    It turns out Trump may have been referring to a segment of Tucker Carlson's show on Fox in which (surprise!) he presented distorted statistics about refugees committing crimes there that was on Friday night. Setting aside the problem of the President being unable to accurately recall something he saw on TV less than 24 hours later, who the hell watches cable news on Friday night except elderly shut-ins with a screw loose? Even inside the Beltway that's odd behavior.

    One last rant on this topic. The US has 17 intelligence agencies. Their total annual budget is a secret, but the best estimates have it north of $30 billion. The primary purpose of all that money, personnel and effort is to create a newspaper with one subscriber -- POTUS. And the guy doesn't even read it half the time! Instead he's watching cable news. Cable news is a menace. It's bad enough citizens watch it. It oughtta be a federal law making it a crime for any elected or appointed official of the government to do so.

    I knew I heard an "Allahu akbar" in that gibberish. Never should have given him that bazooka.

    The guy is simply not intelligent. No intellectual curiosity. A bully's vocabulary. Takes pride in his ignorance. And we elected him.

    In the end you get what you deserve. And the Democrat response will be more of what got us here
