President Donald Trump is fired up over the developments in the A$AP Rocky Swedish case.
The POTUS, who recently tweeted out that he had a conversation with Swedish Prime Minister, Stefan Lofven about A$AP Rocky’s case, was outraged to learn that the rapper has officially been charged with assault. A$AP who also goes by the name Lord Flacko was detained about three weeks ago following a street altercation involving two locals in Stockholm, Sweden. On Thursday, it was reported that the rapper had been charged and could now be facing up to 2 years in prison.
Following the reports, President Trump took to his favorite medium once again to express his outrage. “Very disappointed in Prime Minister Stefan Lofven for being unable to act. Sweden has let our African American Community down in the United States…”
Other country leaders should by now recognize that Trump is infamous for sending angry tweets, so it comes as no surprise that former Prime Minister of Sweden, Carl Bildt reportedly told the daily Aftonbladet that Lofven was right not to comment. “I think it’s right of the government not to go into a mud wrestling match with Trump. That is his element, and should not be Sweden’s.”
Very disappointed in Prime Minister Stefan Löfven for being unable to act. Sweden has let our African American Community down in the United States. I watched the tapes of A$AP Rocky, and he was being followed and harassed by troublemakers. Treat Americans fairly! #FreeRocky

In his twitter rant, Trump also demanded, “Give A$AP Rocky his FREEDOM. We do so much for Sweden, but it doesn’t seem to work the other way around. Sweden should focus on its real crime problem! #FreeRocky”.
At this point, it’s hard to tell if President Trump is actually helping the situation or merely making it much worse for Lord Flacko. A spokesman for the Swedish government made it clear on Friday that they would not get involved with the case. “Sweden and Prime Minister Stefan Lofven has been very clear in the dialogue with both the White House and directly with the American president, that in Sweden everyone is equal before the law and that the government cannot interfere in legal proceedings.”
A$AP is said to be going to trial next week. Hopefully, he will be a free man soon, and Trump will stop fueling this fire so it can die down instead.
Just had a very good call with @SwedishPM Stefan Löfven who assured me that American citizen A$AP Rocky will be treated fairly. Likewise, I assured him that A$AP was not a flight risk and offered to personally vouch for his bail, or an alternative….
