Viktor Orbán’s autocratic regime is touted as the model for remaking America. Meanwhile, Orbán and Co. love Trump and want Europe to go MAGA. 

IT’S NO SECRET that Viktor Orbán’s hardline populist regime is the model for the conservative movement’s Project 2025: conservatives openly tout this, including the Heritage Foundation’s Kevin D.

MEGA, of course, refers to the adopted slogan of Orbán’s brainchild radical right alliance, Patriots for Europe: Make Europe Great Again.
