The Swedish Attack

It is possible, with sufficient repetition, to convince people that a square is, in fact, a circle. They are mere words and words can be molded until they clothe and disguise ideas. ~ Joseph Goebbels (paraphrased for clarity)

This morning, thousands and perhaps even yet millions of Americans awoke convinced that there was a major terror attack on Sweden Friday night. An attack that is being covered up by both the Swedish government and the global media. By this time next week, fully a third of the American people will believe in this mythical attack and that there is a vast liberal conspiracy to hide it.

I know what Sean Spicer is doing today. He's trying to come up with some semi-plausible explanation that isn't that Trump became confused while watching a weekend rebroadcast on Fox News of some old story.
