Trump invited to Hungary to help Orbán’s election campaign!

2022 Hungarian parliamentary election Budapest Hungary United States Viktor Orbán

It seems that a Hungarian thinktank thought that it would be a good idea to invite former US President Donald Trump to Hungary to help PM Orbán’s 2022 election campaign. Election day will be on April 3, so the background staff must act swiftly if they want Trump to come before the ballots are cast.

Fidesz wants Trump to come

The Guardian reported today that the Hungarian Centre for Fundamental Rights (Alapjogokért Központ) sent an invitation to Trump. The source behind the information is an anonymous government official. The British news website referred to PM Orbán as a far-right prime minister. They said that Fidesz would like Trump to travel to Budapest in the following weeks. PM Orbán faces a united opposition on April 3, which has a real chance of winning the election. If so, PM Orbán would have to leave office after 12 years and three victories with a 2/3rds majority.

The government source said that

“people in Fidesz would like Trump to visit Budapest in March,”

but Trump has not replied yet. If he agrees to come, his trip to Hungary would be his first known official trip outside the USA since the 2020 presidential elections.

Does Trump fear the pandemic?

The Guardian reminds its readers that Orbán was an early Trump supporter, endorsing the president as early as summer 2016. Trump returned the favour this January.

“These visits have a huge influence in the Hungarian Conservative community because they see [Trump] as an icon, as someone who spent his presidency in a strong headwind,” said a source close to Fidesz. The Alapjogokért Központ has close ties to the Hungarian government, The Guardian stated.

Fidesz hopes that Trump will join Orbán as the Conservative Political Action Conference’s (CPAC) keynote speaker. The event will be between 25 and 26 March in Budapest.

However, Trump’s fear of the pandemic might be a serious obstacle, The Guardian wrote.

    Vile – if Hungarian citizens embrace & support this INVITATION – God Forbid we are heading into an UN-certain FUTURE.
    Growing arrogance coming out of Fidesz – but the POWER of the Citizens Vote – in April can wipe the smile from the Faces of those who believe victory is in the bag and replace the smilles of arragance with expressions of – get me out of here – PLEASE – what of my Future – and of my Life.
    Trump – voice write whatever – if you believe – he is NOT welcome as an “infamous” individual – as FACT tells us he is – and that his visit – Will Not – contribute – in making the lives of millions of Hungarians – BETTER.

    Whilst I support the return of the present government for another term I think Trump being involved is certainly not going to be helpful and if anything it will encourage the leftist to make Trump the issue and make the election about foreigners tampering with the Hungarian election, Something that is likely to happen by the Brussels globalist crowd anyway. Please someone tell Orban to politely reverse course and keep Trump out of Hungary.

    If you look back at the past few decades you will notice that Trump was the only US president that did not take his country into an unnecessary war. He believed in his country, his countrymen and women and he believed in the protection of the children from being trafficked around the world by the class elite for their own playful purposes so from me … GO TRUMP GO …. thanks for waking up many to the crimes being committed against the many citizens and children of this world and I pray that enough of us are awake enough to stop this world from breaking down into a planetary war that will end us all.
