“It is disgusting that (people) in the Tisza Party wish for the death of pensioners,” Tamas Menczer, the communications director of the ruling Fidesz-Christian Democrat alliance, said on Facebook on Saturday.
Menczer quoted György Raskó, a supporter of the opposition party as saying on social media that “Tisza will benefit from the fact that many seniors, to the tune of hundreds of thousands, will no longer be voting at the next election.”
“It is not true that Raskó … would wish for the death of old people,” Tisza leader Peter Magyar told MTI, adding that agricultural economist Rasko had not been nominated by Tisza in last summer’s municipal and EP elections, nor was he a party member.
Recent polls found that the majority of the Hungarian voters below 40 would choose Péter Magyar’s Tisza Party, while the majority of the voters above 65 would support Fidesz on an election. That is a new trend. Opposition parties were regularly more popular in the age group of people below 30, but losing the 31-40 group for Fidesz is something new.

What those Hungarians over age 65 will eventually find out if they live long enough is that unofficial Fidesz government policy is to not provide expensive life saving treatment to anyone over age 80 such as chemotheraphy for leukemia. I know one such patient. Once you reach age 80 Fidesz leaves you to die but they will crow about giving you your 13th month of pension while they devalue the worth of the money at the same time.
In my opinion he wasn’t wishing death on the older generation at all, he was merely stating the fact that older voters tend to vote for Fidesz and they won’t be alive forever. Unless Fidesz manages to get sufficient numbers of the under 50s on side, their voter base will pass on. The same is true of a lot of Christian Nationalist parties in Europe. Saying this is like saying 2+2=4.
Fidesz is a hopeless project anyway, you cannot endlessly lie to you voter base and Hungarians start to gradually understand that

They’ll wake up to the reality soon enough.
Magyar is Karacsony with slicker P.R.
He has already shown his true colors on the LGBTQWERTY123!@# issue; it won’t be long before his mask slips regarding illegal migration also.

So you rather have a young mentally challenged leader?
“people with narcissistic and psychopathic traits have a strong desire for dominance and are disproportionately common in leadership positions,
If a person has psychopathic traits, then they tend to have narcissistic and Machiavellian traits too.
People with these personalities can’t sense other people’s feelings or see the world from any perspective apart from their own. They don’t have a sense of conscience or guilt to stop them behaving immorally. They feel superior and enjoy manipulating and controlling other people. At the same time, they need to feel respected and admired and like to be the centre of attention.”
