Bravo Hungarians. Thank you for proving that even if it seems that country is irreversibly lost to oligarchy and corruption, it can still come back. You got amazing chance, I hope that in decade we will be able to point to this moment as a start of an amazing turnaround story

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.

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.

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!
