The news just keeps getting worse for Donald. It’s even worse news for Putin. Orban was a major ally of the Russians and worked to undermine NATO. No more.

Obviously Vance campaigning for Orban didn’t help. It actually hurt him:
JD Vance: "Will you stand against the bureaucrats in Brussels? Will you stand for western civilization? Will you stand for freedom, truth, and the God of our fathers? Then, my friends, go to the polls and stand for Viktor Orban!" pic.twitter.com/I8qAErtdMO

Orban concedes defeat. The support of Trump, Vance, Putin, Lavrov, Weidel, Milei, Le Pen, Fico, Babis and many others could not overcome Hungarian anger at a stagnant, corrupt regimehttps://t.co/yfMCWUFk34
