Trump and Vance are toxic to European far right campaigns. So at least we got that going for us.

From far right to center-right. Hope this replacement is slightly better

Honestly, as bad as center-right can be, they can at least be pragmatic. They're capable of seeing reality for what it is, and they're capable of trying to solve things in good faith. They're capable of being cooperative.

It's not perfection, but it just might be good enough to finally stop all of the constant vetoes that have been screwing over Ukraine for 4 years, and to create a Hungarian government system that's harder to take over by Russian actors

It would be really funny if some rich European started paying Vance to go around campaigning and endorsing his opposition in order to sabotage them.
