Thanks TL . I was looking forward to your thoughts on this. I’m sure the EU had a finger on the scales as the vote was tallied. I will pray for the people of Hungary.

Magyar is a psycho who abused his wife, dog and kids...How did Orban lose to this guy? Answer..vote fraud of course....

I think Orban’s support of Israel had a big influence on the vote. Despite needing to keep out large numbers of Muslim immigrants, support for genocide, and the current idiotic war on Iran is immoral. This combined with probable funds from the EU, is powerful incentive. If young people believe they should form families and have children, but cannot afford to, they will seek change.

Thanks Mr. Davis. This is very clear, insightful, and true.

What does it mean for the US?

I think we will find out after the mid-terms and the 2028 election.

I doubt we will like it.

You can't fix stupid. Ignorance and want will destroy civilization. Civilization promises intelligence and prosperity. Without it, what good is civilization?

When Mahatma Gandhi was asked about Western Civilization, he replied, "I think it would be a good idea." In other words, the idea of a liberal society of merit on a level playing field is a good idea, but it isn't here yet.

Europe likes war. It lives for war. My ancestors fled the place to Minnesota in the late 1800s. Forget Europe. Trump is right on one thing: get out of NATO and Europe's stupid wars.

Europe is a lost cause, especially my home country of Ireland. Now there's a Muslim invasion big time.

PS: Ireland never colonized another country. Ireland never declared war on another country. The rest of Europe has done both. Look up King Leopold of Belgium and read what he did to the people in the Congo. The Europeans are insane. Too many wars.

In 2005, Ireland had 4 million people. Since then, the EU has sent over one million "asylum seekers" to Ireland. Over 25% of Ireland is foreign-born. It has caused a housing crisis, among other things. Someone wants Irish culture destroyed. Not warlike enough people, the Irish, I suppose.

Hungary to me means two genius scientists, one good, one bad.

Nikola Tesla invented the A/C electric current, which we all use today. Tesla made our modern world possible.

Edward Teller developed the hydrogen bomb and promoted its development and use. He convinced the American government to spend over a trillion dollars on hydrogen bombs. Teller, BTW, is buried in the US Virgin Islands on land owned by the Rockefeller family.
