This is a good thread and a necessary response to the tautology that "if Orban lost, it means he wasn't an authoritarian"
Zack Beauchamp@zackbeauchamp
I've seen a lot of takes that Orbán's defeat means that he was never an authoritarian in the first place. This is completely wrong — and, in fact, betrays a complete misunderstanding of both Hungarian politics and modern authoritarianism. Here's why.

The drive from Denver to Sheridan Wyoming was ridiculously beautiful (mostly the Wyoming part) and I sadly did not get to take photos as I would have wrecked but I took this once I got settled and walked around; I like the welcome stranger sign:

Illiberalism is not Inevitable.
Neither MAGA nor Putin get to rule forever.

Why won’t Trump strengthen America’s dying economy first?
Acyn@Acyn
Trump: My Administration stands ready to use the full Economic Might of the US to strengthen Hungary's Economy, as we have done for our Great Allies in the past, if Prime Minister Viktor Orbán and the Hungarian People ever need it. We are excited to invest in the future Prosperity that will be generated by Orbán's continued Leadership!

@JoeSquawk @riskcapitalmgmt Gas up to 4 dollars, groceries sky high...

@riskcapitalmgmt Up 1.7% 2/25-2/26. Closed border. Stocks just off all time highs. Iran will never have nukes. Smile.

Inflation averaged 5.2% under Biden. Even with a war and tariffs to rebalance global trade March core annual CPI rose 2.6%
Pete Buttigieg@PeteButtigieg
Inflation has tripled from just one month ago, and it’s higher than when he took office. Not only has Trump failed to deliver on his central campaign promise to make life more affordable - he is actively, directly driving prices up.

@Acyn Incompetent DEI administration didn't hire negotiating team that can communicate in another language.

In the best case scenario, Trump struck a deal to reopen a Strait that was open before the pointless war he started, with the IRGC demonstrating its control over the Strait and potentially extracting fees plus sanctions relief. Thousands of innocents - including hundreds of children - dead in Lebanon and Iran for no reason. U.S. troops killed and wounded. U.S. embassies and bases in the Middle East badly damaged. U.S. standing in the world obliterated. U.S. munitions badly depleted. Hundreds of billions spent. Prices up everywhere. More global economic fallout to come. Putin strengthened and enriched. Just a catastrophic situation even in the best of circumstances. A profoundly shameful episode in American history no matter what happens next.

There is no one more confident in their worldview than someone who has never left their hometown.

Iran would be wise to take President Trump at his word.
They can choose the easy way or the hard way.

@EWErickson He's an idiot backed into a corner of his own making but nice try.
English
What's actually happening here is the President has embraced the "mad man" theory and is trying to convince the Iranians that he's willing to do whatever to wipe them out in hopes of getting a deal. The failure is that the President, like so many others, doesn't actually appreciate that the Iranians are mad men who live in a fundamentally religious world where they really do believe they are to wipe out Israel and their citizens are expendable. But no, this is not an unhinged President. It's a man playing a role as a negotiation tactic. Unfortunately, the President is going to be backed into a corner of extreme options by doing this, or be mocked for TACO again.

@HillaryClinton warned us:
“This is not someone who should ever have the nuclear codes – because it’s not hard to imagine Donald Trump leading us into a war just because somebody got under his very thin skin.”

CRY-BABY was released 36 years ago today.
Johnny Depp took the role specifically to break away from his teen idol image after 21 Jump Street, using the exaggerated musical and rebellious tone to pivot toward more unconventional characters.

I really wish "legal experts" hadn't screamed bloody murder about every little thing Trump did, so they could speak with authority now that he's actually committing war crimes.

Loved this film from Hailey Gates and Alia Shawkat.

Our president is a deranged lunatic and should clearly be removed from office. He’s only there because of Republican Members of Congress.

Memo to MAGA people: you can do everything he asks you can suppress the Epstein files you can screech and scream at the Congress you can bring cases to the Supreme Court that are nonsensical, and you can prosecute people who do not deserve to be prosecuted. Anything that the guy wants, and he will still steamroll you.
