Opportunities for U.S.–Hungary Relations in the Next Trump Administration

‘For conservatives of both nations, a Trump victory in November would be highly significant. For Hungary, strengthening political and business relations with a key ally gives the country even greater leverage with its European counterparts and cements the Orbán government as the cornerstone for European relations with the United States for at least the next four years. For the United States, having not just an ally, but a friendly government in Europe with similar geopolitical aims that can act as a conduit to Russia and China will be exceedingly important for geopolitical and economic objectives.’

Although embarking on this path requires compromises and the harmonization of interests, with no particular policy proposal in that regard adopted at this time, the summit had symbolic significance, sending the message that the V4 alliance is still relevant.

Tucker’s Grocery Store and the Decline of the West

‘While Budapesters aren’t wealthy, their lives are safe, purposeful, and filled with objective beauty. They perceive that they are temporary stewards of a valuable human condition and assume their descendants ought to inherit it; society is to be preserved, rather than consumed. Mothers with infants and other young children are an unmistakable element of the Hungarian capital. I always felt comfortable when my wife walked alone at night. Violent crime and discarded needles are nonexistent. This is life in the former Eastern Bloc.’

Sharenting, a portmanteau of sharing and parenting, refers to the practice of parents (or even grandparents) regularly sharing photos and information about their (grand)children on social media platforms. Some prefer to use the term oversharenting, highlighting that issues concerning the infringement of the privacy rights of children are not necessarily linked to the fact that parents post content about their loved ones on these platforms, but that they do it in an excessive and arbitrary way, which crosses a line.
