Prime Minister Viktor Orban of Hungary, a lodestar for MAGA culture
warriors and right-wing populists in Europe, conceded defeat on Sunday in a general election, breaking the momentum of a global nationalist revival promoted by President Trump.
Speaking to supporters Sunday evening in Budapest, Mr. Orban said the "election results, although not complete, are understandable and clear.
They are painful for us but unequivocal. "
He congratulated the opposition, saying: "The responsibility and
opportunity to govern were not given to us. "
But, he vowed in his surprisingly early concession speech: "We are not
giving up. Never, never, never. "
Sunday's vote was widely seen as showdown between friends and foes of
liberal democracy, a cause that Mr. Orban has battled against for years to applause from his fans in the United States, Europe and Latin America. It
was closely watched by the Trump administration and the Kremlin, both of
which wanted Mr. Orban to win and both of which offered support in his campaign.
With 66 percent of votes counted, the opposition Tisza party was on course
to win 137 seats u more than a two-thirds majority u with Mr. Orban's
party, Fidesz, expected to win just 55. The opposition leader is a former Orban loyalist, Peter Magyar, who broke away in 2024.
Shortly before polls closed, the electoral authorities said that more than
77 percent of registered voters had cast ballots, the highest turnout in a Hungarian election since the collapse of Communism in 1989 and the start of democracy.
"Hungary's fate will be decided today, for a long time to come, " Mr.
Magyar said early Sunday as he went to vote. He later noted that Election
Day was the anniversary of a 2003 vote in favor of joining the European
Union, a sign that he wanted to end the Orban government's antagonism
toward the bloc.

Mr. Orban, whose party won the four previous elections easily, acknowledged
on Sunday that he faced a very tight race that could hinge on just a few votes. Casting the vote as a choice between peace and war, as he has throughout the campaign, he appealed to supporters on Facebook.
"Hungary's peace and security could depend on one vote today, " Mr. Orban said. "This is a decision that we can't undo tomorrow. Today we have to protect Hungary! Today no patriot can stay at home! "
The consequences of the outcome reach far beyond Hungary's borders. They
could help alter the course of the war in Ukraine, a neighbor that Mr.
Orban has cast as an enemy of Hungary, and affect European security. They
will also be looked at by populists around the world who view the Hungarian leader as a model of success and of pugnacious defiance of the mainstream. Image

Mr. Orban remade Hungary in his own image, eliminating many checks and balances by stacking the judicial system and nominally independent agencies with Fidesz loyalists, and taking control of most news media outlets. He
also worked to export his model of "illiberal democracy, " promoting
himself as an invincible guru for followers across Europe and elsewhere. Sunday's election results are likely to disappoint President Trump, who
sent Vice President JD Vance to Budapest, the Hungarian capital, last week
to rally support for Mr. Orban in the final stretch of the campaign.
"I love Viktor, " said Mr. Trump, speaking by telephone from Washington to
a gathering of Fidesz supporters in Budapest on Tuesday.
But Mr. Orban's defeat will delight liberals and the European Union, which
had increasingly come to view him as a disruptive menace.
Long a thorn in the side of E. U. officials in Brussels, Mr. Orban has consistently blocked European assistance to Ukraine, worked to water down sanctions on Russia and presented Ukraine, not Russia, as the principal
threat to Europe's security.

Those positions made him an invaluable ally for the Russian president, Vladimir V. Putin. Mr. Putin, hoping to help Mr. Orban's chances in the election, assured him last month that Hungary could rely on steady
deliveries of Russian oil and gas despite disruptions to global energy supplies caused by the war in Iran.

Orban will come to America and become Governor of Texas.



As of April 2026, the US midterm elections are shaping up to be a potential disaster for the Republican Party, with concerns growing over the impact of the Trump administration's policies on the economy and foreign affairs.
Key Factors Driving Potential Republican "Devastation":

Economic Anxiety: Voters are showing deep concern over affordability, inflation, and high oil/gas prices. The cost of living is causing a
backlash against the administration, with some forecasts predicting job losses.
Foreign Policy Challenges: The decision by the Trump administration to engage in conflict with Iran is viewed as unpopular by a significant
portion of the electorate, with opponents and some politicians arguing it
is a "war of choice" that is hurting the economy and risking American
lives. Senator Rand Paul has warned this could lead to a "disastrous
election" if gas prices remain high, with oil prices having previously
surged past $100.
Internal GOP Fissures: There are growing internal disagreements within
the Republican party, with Senator Thom Tillis and others openly
criticizing the Senate Leadership Fund for not supporting certain
candidates and highlighting "Republican-on-Republican" spending.
Democratic Momentum: Democrats have consistently overperformed in
special elections in 2025 and early 2026, winning seats in both red and
blue districts, which is seen as a sign of potential "blue wave" momentum
for the 2026 midterms.
Redistricting and Voter Turnout: While Republicans have tried to secure advantages through redistricting, there is significant focus on voter
turnout. Reports indicate that some in the GOP are nervous about their
chances of maintaining control of the House and Senate.
Abortion Politics: A rift between the Trump administration and anti- abortion activists, who feel their concerns on policy issues are not being adequately addressed, could impact the Republican party's ability to
mobilize its base.

Historical Trends
Historically, the party in the White House often loses seats in midterm elections, with an average loss of 28 House seats and 4 Senate seats from
1934 to 2018. The 2026 election is seen as a crucial test of whether the Republican party can overcome these trends and the current negative
momentum.

Anytime a foreign leader is endorsed
by both Trump and Putin it is time to rally
against them.

Nobody cares about politics in Hungary. Fact is Vance only paid him a
visit to give him a going-away blowjob.

Orban and Vance have been humping each other for years.
