The likelihood Viktor Orbán winning Hungary’s upcoming parliamentary election has dropped since U.S. Vice President JD Vance made a speech endorsing him, according to the latest betting odds.
Speaking at a press conference in Hungary’s capital, Budapest, on Wednesday, Vance said he would help the incumbent prime minister in his election campaign and praised Orbán ahead of the April 12 poll.



It does still follow the trend that everyone Vance supports has lost their elections. If Musk also got in there to support Orban, it would be the death-rattle to his “leadership”.
Trump won.
That’s just what Elon wants you to think.
Trump clearly has a kind of charisma that appeals to mostly shitty people. Elon and Vance don’t appeal to anyone.
Don’t kid yourself, Elon has more appeal than the president does. As much as I may hate him.
I disagree. Elon can surround himself with people who will simp for his money, but I’ve never seen him work a crowd or charm people.
