“We approached nearly a dozen Republican senators this week to ask them whether they endorse Fox host Tucker Carlson’s promotion of Hungary’s right-wing populist leader,” Insider reports.
“The only GOP senator who said he was very familiar with Hungary’s government was Sen. Ron Johnson, a Wisconsin Republican and close ally of former President Donald Trump, who endorsed Orbán’s leadership as a model for the US. He called Carlson’s glowing portrayal of the autocrat ‘pretty accurate.’”
Said Johnson: “I recognize the liberal left doesn’t like Hungary, but there are so many positive things about what they’re doing in that country.”
