Hungary was absolutely the tip of the spear for the Putin/Trump plan to destroy Europe and turn it to fascism. To have Hungary go snap back to European democratic values derails the Right Wing plan.

Maybe the one good that comes of Trump is he has been a wakeup call to the world, fascism is on the march and it's up to democracies to reject it everywhere.
