The domestic left was stretched by Trump's victory.
The domestic opposition received a shock from the results of the US presidential election, because with the fall of the Democrats, foreign political and financial support may also weaken, said Ervin Nagy. According to the analyst
Péter Magyar has to think about whether the tactic of relying on foreign support to topple the government is a good one, since this did not work for either the DK or Momentum.
"Mar-a-Lago is calling Budapest! We had our first post-election phone conversation with President Trump. We have big plans!”
- Viktor Orbán wrote on his social media page shortly after it was decided that the Republican presidential candidate won the presidential election in the United States. The close political alliance between the Hungarian Prime Minister and the American President is proven by the fact that Viktor Orbán was the first to speak with Donald Trump in Europe after his election.
However, the Hungarian left literally lost the American presidential election, as the fall of the Democrats may weaken foreign political and financial support.
With Trump's victory, all the Western aid that the domestic left has received so far, whose biggest trump card is Western aid, including the sharing of research, know-how, expertise and other soft power support in addition to social networking sites, may dry up.
The opposition received a shock because they followed the tactic for the past 14 years of wanting to win the domestic elections with external financial and political help and support. And this is also true for Péter Magyar, since the Tisza also hoped for further financial support - Ervin Nagy told Magyar Nemzet , according to
Péter Magyar must think about whether the tactic of relying on foreign support to overthrow the government is a good one.
This did not work for DK and Momentum, perhaps Tisza should also review whether it is on the right track, he added.
When asked whether Tisza's absence from the Tolna county by-election on January 12 could be part of a new strategy, Ervin Nagy said that caution and knowledge of facts that the Péter Magyars do not make public could be behind it. - He can see internal measurements that do not match the results of public opinion polls, according to which Tisza is already stronger than the governing parties.
The fact that they do not start proves that there are no organizational resources at all, so the balloon quickly burst
- said Ervin Nagy, adding that there is not enough time to find financial supporters in the current situation.
According to Ervin Nagy, with Trump winning, the left's first feeling was obviously that the previous American support might cease, that the grip of the American government and the American embassy would weaken, which the opposition is now experiencing in such a way that the chances of for the 2026 election. The analyst believes that Trump's victory will affect domestic political struggles, but not because Viktor Orbán will have a stronger ally in the world - this will help the Hungarian Prime Minister on the European stage - but because the pressure exerted by the American government will weaken practiced through the embassy. Ervin Nagy does not see the fact that the opposition would not find the opportunity to gather foreign support, be it political or financial, as dangerous.
The part of the democratic administration that intervened in Hungarian domestic politics, or the Soros network will operate independently of Trump. Maybe they will have less energy and attention to Hungary, but György Soros himself wants Viktor Orbán to fall, to advance the principles of an open society here as well, for this purpose they will find the forms of support until 2026, because they have been quite creative in this so far
- said the analyst, adding that civil organizations or NGOs operate regardless of who leads the States. - It's a fact, so far there has been a collapse with the Biden administration, which did this quite openly, let's think about how the embassy interfered in Hungarian politics. If Kamala Harris won, what we experienced under Biden would only have intensified. Harris would have supported the Hungarian opposition even more, the state of shock therefore also refers to what they expected, not just what happened - said the analyst. He emphasized that the left believed that such a centrist Biden would not lead the administration, but
a much more aggressive, more agile, more assertive and stronger tailwind Harris wins, who would have had more open interference in domestic politics and increased pressure, which they will not be able to enjoy under the Trump administration.
