…how many times will they say “Putin wants”…
A reminder that much of Project 2025 was based on and informed by Orbans takeover of the Hungarian government and media landscape. So much so that Orban’s own think tanks contributed to parts of Project 2025 and the Trump campaign.
Orban allies himself with other authoritarian leaders and needs the US to become more like his country so he can have the backing and to pressure the EU into giving his country more funds.
His government is objectively a failure in the sense of actually operating for his people and survives off of EU funds, while simultaneously demonizing the EU as a whole.
Orban is the definition of a welfare queen. He is not a competent leader, but he is a competent authoritarian. Expect Trump to rail against the EU in the coming hours after his meeting with Orban and for him to allude to Russia is only attacking because the West is not nice.
Yes that giant trading partner…. Now release the Epstein files, Release SNAP funds and end the shutdown.
