According to the director of the House of Terror museum, the opposition will fall to pieces again after the 2026 elections.

In her interview with Mandiner, Mária Schmidt made an exhaustive statement about Péter Magyar and the year behind us. The head of the House of Terror museum said, I think there was a lot of good news despite all this this year, which undoubtedly brought dramatic changes in domestic politics. Indeed, we were all proud of the popular president of the republic, but he failed together with the equally popular justice minister, and this made our camp uneasy. This was a blow to our political community.

After that, the ex-husband, The Man, took the stage and brought about a structural change in the world of parties.

According to Schmidt, voters from all opposition formations went under The Man. According to the historian, it must be admitted that there are those who want change and innovation just because the same government has been in place for fourteen years, this can cause some fatigue, but the most important thing is that the opposition sympathizers are terribly dissatisfied with what they have been offered so far.

Of course, The Man did not bring anything new, the same was previously sought in, say, Péter Márki-Zay. The Man doesn't answer any substantive questions, we don't know what he's thinking about.

Mária Schmidt pointed out, then added that only one thing still matters to the opposition: Viktor Orbán should not be prime minister.

The left was also shocked by Péter Magyar's scandalous statements

That's why I think this will end in huge disappointment again, and then the opposition will fall to pieces again. Even though the challenger is doing well according to public opinion polls - I note that Kamala Harris was also considered the winner before the presidential election - he has no stake now. When the people have to decide who should be responsible for the fate of the country, and there is a fikahuszár and a seasoned politician standing before them, who has already proven himself, there will hardly be any question who will be chosen by more people

- added Schmidt, who says that after Trump's victory, it is not certain that the foreign tailwind will remain, and the proportion of micro-donations may also decrease.
