Sweden's rightward tilt (election results)

Paul Joseph Watson covers the recent election results in Sweden, where the liberal grip on power has finally been broken by the right-leaning Sweden Democrat party and its nationalistic, Trumpian slogan of "Make Sweden Safe Again." The current prime minister (Magdalena Andersson) has resigned, and as PJW says, there is now some hope as Sweden does what it can do undo the damage caused by lax immigration policies that have turned Sweden from one of Europe's safest countries into one of its most violent.

Mind you, the Swedish system involves a coalition government, and while the conservatives have certainly gained ground, they are not the majority. That said, the Sweden Democrats now wield much more influence than they had heretofore. We'll see what changes occur.
