I like how Orban thinks Trump, Putin and Xi think of him as an equal.

[antonirzepczynski]

he is not even able to make hungary average

[DerDop]

Orban can't fix
P.s Orban speaks of racial purity and Europe for Europeans while he’s half rroma and he told xi that Hungarians are close to Chinese people since they’re from Asia

[Nathann]

It’s funny that he thinks he’s at the level of the super powers even though most of his country is funded by the EU

[geg]

In Hungarian S is pronounced as Sh and Sz is pronounced as S, so it’s Fides and BudaPesht

[thepax]

No. He's just a discount Trump.
As the meme says: "We have Trump at home...
The trump at home: Viktor Orban"

[Hawk_Sparrow]

"I want to make a new EU with America, Russia and China". So go leave the EU then and do it, this is all a circus act from him.

[Real_MrDev]

He cannot run his own country, let alone all of the EU 😂

[filipkompanik]

Calls himself patriot, but instead of putting EU as number 1 he wants to be cozy with Russia/China/US. What a joke of a hypocrite. Foreign asset, thats what he is.

[strayowl]

Hungary just fell behind Bulgaria (!!) in purchasing power. So hungary became the EU's poorest country under Orban. Big success!

[manwiththeredface]

Meanwhile his reign is getting shaky at home, believe it or not. So don't write Hungary down just yet.

[bonevgm]

Make Hungary not shit again by removing Orban.

[thomastakesatollforthedark]

So he straight up says he's opposed to democracy. Wow

[frgv]

The main caveat of the EU is to not have made a provision for failures. So expulsion should be an option. Not having that puts all the EU concept in jeopardy.

[grandmasteryoda]

"Make Europe Great Again" is a pretty silly thing to say considering Europe as a whole is in a better state than it has been in decades. Not that long ago, it was split in half by the Iron Curtain. Iberia was also full of dictatorships. Germany was also split in half.

[kiyabashibr]

A correction: Orban has never claimed to represent the EU on his visit to Putin, China or Trump. He was accused of it by European leaders, the accusations were false though

[jochen]

Orban can bark all he wants but it does not stop the fact that he still lacks allies for all of this. The closest thing he has is Fico and even that is a stretch since both of them really don't like each other and Fico is frustrated by the constant attempts of Hungary to interfere in Slovak politics due to the Hungarian minority living there. The Patriots are third biggest Group but they still lack all kind of influence.

[bazzfromthebackground]

It's like he saw Brexit and said "I can do this dumber."

[saphna]

the only good thing from this is that MEGA looks and sounds more satisfying than MAGA

[TwilightLimits-skkn]

Orban is a disgrace and should be ashamed of himself
