Maddow: Trump's fear is palpable as authoritarian peer Orban is resoundingly rejected in Hungary - Rachel Maddow - MS NOW [View all]
Rachel Maddow highlights some striking parallels between Donald Trump and the authoritarian regime his administration is modeled on, Victor Orbán in Hungary.
Maddow notes that the basis for an authoritarian's power is the sense that their continued rule is inevitable, so seeing Orbán tossed from power so handily by the voters of Hungary sends a clear and upsetting message to Trump, and an encouraging message to Trump's opponents. - Aired on 04/13/2026.
