Viktor Orban the strong arm ruler of Hungary has been voted out of office. It's a credit to the strength of Hungary's democratic system that this was possible. Strong arm rulers like Orban have a habit of dismantling democracy to lock in their power; in fact according to Wiki.....
Since Orbán resumed office in 2010, Hungary has experienced democratic backsliding and weakened judicial independence, while witnessing an increase in corruption and the establishment of governmental agencies with stricter oversight of the press and media
That Orban was a favourite of Trump's administration and also Putin's lying, tyrannical criminal regime tells us all we really need to know about Orban's authoritarian leanings. Trump's lieutenant JD Vance recently visited Hungary and canvassed for Orban. Vance had the gall to suggest that the current US Administration shared Orban's values of "freedom" - read that as "freedom" from the messy argumentative business of democratic government; a form of government which acknowledges epistemically and morally challenged human nature and therefore builds into a formal constitution both accountability and an agreement to disagree.
