Trump repeatedly called on the Swedish authorities to release the rapper and spoke with Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Löfven to urge him to treat the rapper"fairly," and offering to"personally vouch for his bail, or an alternative."

WHO REALLY CARES?

adorable, he thinks he did this

No one has taken a us hostage or made an example out of any american since he has been president.

trump will count this as a win. He strong armed govt Sweden & they let him go. So he feels a power rush because he bullied successfully. In reality is A$AP just out on bail pending trial?

Can someone explain why this is relevant? Trump just wants Kylie Jenner and Kardashian's followers for his campaign.
