They both want to keep out the hordes from their countries. Orban was already able to do it, put up a fence and plenty of border guards, Trump is working on it.

I’m guessing Trump has a much better looking wife.

“authoritarian”

OK, I’m stumped. What makes Orban “authoritarian”, other than that the author doesn’t like him?

Authoritarian?!?!?

Funny you never hear them call, say Maduro, “Authoritarian”.

From Wakipedia: “According to Politico, Orbán political philosophy ‘echoes the resentments of what were once the peasant and working classes’ by promoting an ‘uncompromising defense of national sovereignty and a transparent distrust of Europe’s ruling establishments’”.

Somehow THAT got translated to “authoritarian”?! Exactly whose personal freedoms get infringed with that thinking again?

“Orban was already able to do it”

Orban doesn’t have a huge opposition political party with the backing of every news outlet actively trying to get as many illegal invaders across the border as possible.

I haven’t believed anything Newsweek said since they published a fake story about our troops flushing a Koran down a toilet. At least 100 in Afghanistan and Pakistan died from the riots caused by that lie.

President Donald Trump enjoyed his meeting with Hungary's authoritarian prime minister ...

No bias there from #FakeNews Newsweak.

President Trump is first and foremost a businessman.

If he were to explore partnership arrangements with Orban, Netanyahu and Duterte he would have reliable local partners in Europe, the Arab Middle East and the South China Sea, respectively.

We could call them our field representatives

“authoritarian” - is that what you call someone who won an open and fair election in a landslide?

Newsweek?? Does anyone read Newsweek? Does anyone care what they ‘think’? Haven’t they gone out of business yet or is someone keeping it alive like Carlos Slim or Jeff Bezos?

I know we’re supposed to keep track of what the enemy is up to, but still!
