Vance helping the fascist dude. No not that one; a different one.
JD Vance has railed against the EU, accusing it of blatantly interfering in Hungary’s upcoming elections, even as the US vice-president said he had travelled to Budapest to “help” Viktor Orbán win Sunday’s vote.
Yes but that’s completely different, because Vance is from Rust Belt Ohio. Rust Belt protects all forms of double standards.
Speaking to reporters shortly after landing in Budapest on Tuesday, Vance’s tone was combative as he alleged that the EU was responsible for “one of the worst examples of foreign election interference” he had ever seen.
…
Vance, however, made no effort to conceal the reason he had arrived in the country five days before a heated election in which Orbán is facing the possibility of being ousted after 16 years in power. “Of course, I want to help, as much as I possibly can, the prime minister as he faces this election season,” said Vance.
Wull, he said; he’s helping; that’s not interfering.
At the evening rally – called a “Day of Friendship” event – Vance delivered further attacks on the EU. “I’m not telling you exactly who to vote for, but what I am telling you is that the bureaucrats in Brussels, those people, should not be listened to,” he said. “Listen to your hearts, listen to your souls, and listen to the sovereignty of the Hungarian people.”
He added: “I see that those who hate Europe the most, who hate its borders, its energy independence, the people who hate its Christian heritage, they hate one man above all others and his name is Viktor Orbán. And if they hate him, it means he’s on your side.”
Hearts, souls, Christian heritage. It’s all so familiar.
