Trump Begs Another Country to Elect Putin’s Ally

Donald Trump has offered fawning praise to a far-right anti-immigration leader who is one of Vladimir Putin’s closest allies in Europe.

In a Tuesday Truth Social post, Trump threw his support behind Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, describing him as a “truly strong and powerful Leader, with a proven track record of delivering phenomenal results.”

Trump’s endorsement of Orbán comes as the authoritarian Hungarian PM faces a serious risk of losing an upcoming election, in which his strong ties to Moscow, combined with the country’s economic struggles, have become a major campaign issue.
