    A good sign for democracy worldwide. We can push back the tide - we just need to turn out and have our voices heard.

      Idk…I’m not as optimistic about it. Magyar only left Orbans party because Magyar’s wife was part of a big controversy after she helped pardon a pedophile.

      We can all hope for the best, but I think this is more of a battle for control of the reins rather than a dispute of political ideology.

        I thought the important bit is that it’s his Ex-Wife as he was the one that exposed the controversy, Leading to the divorce? but I might be missing some details…

    Orbán’s downfall was no doubt facilitated by the endorsement of Donald “let’s fuck up the entire world” Trump and JD “Mr. Charisma” Vance.

    And it’s a huge blow to both of them.
