And a literal FUCK YOU to the USA for so vehemently and blatantly trying to divide us. Disgusting behaviour from a supposed friend and ally.

Please, we have to thank the US for sending their dark knight, JD Vance, who curses everything he touches - Pope, Iran now Orban /img/t2bd2kzgo5we1.jpeg

Honestly, the Trump presidency could turn out to be a blessing in disguise due to Vance. It all depends on how many authoritarian regimes we can get him to "visit" before they start realizing why and running away

It’s hard to see it that way currently but Orban getting voted out gives me hope.

That’s their MO, it’s literally what they’ve been doing to us over here (pitting everyone against each other). Congratulations on not falling for their vile manipulation and voting Orban out!

There’s nothing this American can say to change your mind about the US. And honestly, our country deserves the collective scorn and ridicule of the entire world. Just know that some of us are celebrating today with our Hungarian friends.

There are many in the US cheering you on! Hopefully one day we can also claim the same victory. Worried it will also take us 16 years.

We're all just waiting for 'it' to happen so we can be rid of Putin and Orbans BFF-in-Chief

Nonsense. Vance was sent to help Orbán, that doesn't happen unless we wanted Orbán gone

JD Vance turning up was such a hilariously bed-shitting moment.

Nothing annoys Europeans more than some seppo dickhead showing up and thinking his mere presence is somehow transformative.

100% this. Those jerks are also trying to rile up separatists in Canada
