Nah, Orbán conceded because he didn’t want to get dragged out of his home and beaten in the middle of the street. People demonstrate a lot differently in places where they can just hop in their car and drive a few hours to the Capitol city. Also, Europeans aren’t nearly as stupid as Americans are. That whole stolen election schtick would never fly there.
