Great article. Thanks.

Paul Krugman should get credit for warning about Orban from early on. Personal acquaintance, I think.

Reining in Orban probably depends on Europe. Orban's Hungary doesn't belong in the EU. Can the EU rise to the challenge?

While I knew overall what Orban was up to, this explanation was thorough and important. I think many people are waking up to the reality that the fight against authoritarianism is constant.

thanks - learned a lot myself in writing this piece. I think the point Cas made is important - the specific changes Orban made might or might not work in the US, but the motivation to make those changes is the same.
