You know, the more I hear about this Putin guy, the less I like him.

Unlike their pals in the White House, who are running an overt campaign.

And? Is it working? I have to ask because if Russia is good at one thing it’s manipulation of the people in order to win elections.

The Kremlin is good at this stuff. They’ll wait until the last 2-3 days to really get going.

It’s strange that hardly anyone mentions that Orban’s main backer right now isn’t the Kremlin, but Trump and the Republicans from the US.
And they’re sending campaign advisors to help.

Most social media should be turned off 3 months before an election. Tax funded independent media, should provide balanced political reporting instead, with same time slots for the candidates.

Hopefully this isn’t surprising to anyone. Orban is a Russian plant in the EU, they have inventetet billions in getting him in power and keeping him there is protecting their investment.

How does Russia have this kind of money to throw around in each and every EU country to run a Russian puppet, fund a war, spy on every country and such?

Don’t be surprised if there is some kind of manufactured crisis right before the elections.
If this happens, Orban could claim that said crisis calls for emergency security measures that places forces on the streets or requires election delays. Any voting that does take place could be followed by accusations of voter fraud that has been masterminded by the Ukrainians.
>**Orban steps up oil accusations against Ukraine after vetoing EU loan to Kyiv**
>26 February 2026
>Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban says he has stationed soldiers at key energy facilities across the country after he blamed Ukraine for disrupting energy supplies.
>Orban, who is trailing in opinion polls ahead of pivotal elections next month, has accused Kyiv of imposing an “oil blockade” on Hungary by deliberately delaying the reopening of the Druzhba pipeline.
Or he could follow the Enabling Act playbook of arresting some of the opposition at an opportune time.
