Peter Magyar's victory in Hungary was fueled by a potent message tying the affordability crisis to the corruption of wealthy elites. With Trump presiding over unprecedented corruption in our government and with prices for everyday Americans skyrocketing, Democrats have the opportunity to replicate Magyar's success in November and beyond. https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/magyar-trump-orban-corruption-affordabillity

    @georgetakei@universeodon.com A message that's being willfully ignored by the Newsomes, Schumer's, etc. of the Democratic party.

  • @georgetakei@universeodon.com But they won't because most of our politicians, GOP and Democrat, are owned by Israel. They have more control over our country then King George ever did. We will have to clean all of them out to have any meaningful change in this country. https://www.trackaipac.com/congress

    @georgetakei@universeodon.com Remembering that Magyar is (by EU standards) an ultra-right-winger. So he should fit in perfectly in America. Isn't it "Mágyar"? No, my mistake : "Péter Magyar".

    @georgetakei@universeodon.com Magyar led a unified opposition. In the US, liberals spend way too much time arguing about ideological purity. George W. Bush won in 2000 because of Ralph Nader and Trump won in 2016 because of Jill Stein. Those 2 bozos went on to appoint 5 of the 9 current SCOTUS justices. When you vote for somebody who can't get elected, it means you don't care who gets elected. We need to care much more.

    @georgetakei@universeodon.com In Hungary, the corrupt mega-wealth of those close to Orban is so transparent that his daughter and son-in-law were sent to USA to stay for weeks around the election time, to reduce the impact of the list of properties owned by them (it is pages long, and that is just the hotels with >200 rooms and similar value properties). The public listing was helpful to make people realise the level of corruption. So USA- keep publishing what the tRump family own!
