JD Vance criticises alleged EU interference in Hungarian elections as he effectively endorses Orbán

3. Not a word about Russia's blatant involvement in the election. What a surprise.

He really is a prize shit.

As for Europe trying to "destroy the economy of Hungary", presumably that was through the vast amount of funding Hungary has received from the EU, with extremely strong suspicions that a large amount of it has found its way into Orban's pockets over the years. Hungary didn't start being a net contributor to the EU until 2025, and that was due to remittances being frozen because Hungary wasn't complying with its legal commitments to the bloc. There are ongoing wrangles about $10 billion paid out by the EU in 2023, which Hungary arguably wasn't entitled to.

I hope the majority of Hungarians view Vance with as much distaste and contempt as the rest of the world does, including many of his colleagues. We all know he's a loser, just sent out to do Trump's dirty work like the craven lackey he is. Hopefully this will end up as another paragraph on his stellar résumé.
