Eyebrows raised as Viktor Orbn to visit Donald Trump in Florida

[Lonestarblue]

The Heritage Foundation, whose leaders created Project 2025 as a blueprint for dictatorship, are now hosting the dictator of Hungary for a speech and ideas on ending democracy. Trump also will see him, no doubt to learn how he can help Putin.

“In an almost unheard-of move for a Nato country’s leader, he is not expected to meet anyone from the Biden administration.

Instead, he is scheduled to speak on Thursday on a panel with the head of a conservative think tank , the Heritage Foundation, before meeting Trump in Florida on Friday.

The visit, which comes at a low point in Hungary’s post cold war relationship with Washington, is being watched closely in foreign policy circles, in part due to fears that Orbán could use his access to the Republican presidential candidate to promote Kremlin talking points on Ukraine.“

3. I hadn't even thought of that. Putin paying Trump for past classified information sharing.

Or Hungary paying him for US intelligence, although it’s getting old by now.

I know that this is english-english for 'what the flying fuck', but somehow the headline doesn't quite capture how abnormal this is.

Yeah, it's too diplomatic to convey how disturbing and dangerous this dumpster fire really is.

12. Oh.

Well definitely raise those eyebrows.

"...fears that Orbán could use his access to the Republican presidential candidate to promote Kremlin talking points on Ukraine.“

Where the fuck has this person been the past ten years. JFC!

13. Is he going to get a hero's welcome from crowds of MAGAts clogging the road around Merde a Lago?

It's a rhetorical question--of course he is! Come on, this is Florida! (Where's a category 6 hurricane when we need one?)
