I appreciate the context! What is your perspective on Magyar being a former Orban loyalist? Did he truly part ways, or was this to ensure the next russian sock puppet gets in for a long time?
What comes to mind is JD Vance himself once equated Trump to Hitler but then pivoted so rapidly as to he his biggest advocate.
There is luckily zero chance for any of that. If there is one thing the Magyar voters hate more than Orbán, it's Putin. On literally all of Magyar's speeches, or any event connected to the Tisza party, there are alway-always "Russians go home!" chants. Which ironically was originally an Orbán quote from 1989. But it took Orbán 20+ years to change his (and his voters') tune. So I think we are safe with Magyar for about a generation in this regard.
