Left-leaning pundits, Democratic lawmakers, and at least one Republican skewered President Donald Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance Sunday after they went all in to support Hungarian strongman Viktor Orbán in the country’s elections on Sunday.
Unfortunately for MAGA, Orbán was trounced by Péter Magyar’s centre-right opposition party, putting an end to Orbán’s 16-year reign of “illiberal democracy.”
Vance even flew to Hungary last week where Trump phoned in to whip up Hungarian voters — before Vance headed to the Iran peace negotiations in Pakistan, where he also came up empty.
The Bulwark’s Sarah Longwell referred to both losses when posting, “Pretty embarrassing all around for JD Vance today.”
