It's pretty disturbing that AMERICAN members of Trump's cult are wailing and gnashing their teeth over Orban being kicked to the curb.
And here's the thing...since one of their key characteristics is lacking any kind of self-awareness, I don't know how many of them are thinking "It can happen HERE, in November."
Voters generally do not turn out in record numbers to shitcan a fascist dictator if they are happy with that dictator.
And it's impossible to witness this, including Trump's "endorsement" and Vance stumping for him, and not ponder if the same thing can happen here in 7 months.
Anyway, try not to rub it in too hard when you encounter sobbing MAGAts.
Just kidding.
Rub it in.

(280 posts)He can't fire Vance but he might fire somebody. Who knows? OR, he will say the hungarian election was rigged and say that Orban should have not conceded? who knows....... anything to distract us.

(23,534 posts)Trump DOES have a compulsion to inject himself into every headline, but I've noticed that on some of the "TRUMP ENDORSED THEM AND THEY LOST BIGLY YUGE" stories, he just sort of pretends it never happened, because he'd have to admit defeat (OR say it was "rigged," and he's too busy whining about his own loss in 2020).

(2,913 posts)The ground has been eroding under Trump's feet every single day. One wonders how much lower he can go before his party puts Trump under the bus, rather than the other way around.
We have to be getting close to the breaking point when Vance, Theil and others decide it is time to make the move.
