It's official: Following Tuesday's primaries, President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump appear set for a rematch in November after both candidates secured enough delegates to win their parties' nominations. This past weekend, Republican front-runner Donald Trump hosted Hungary's authoritarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán at Mar-a-Lago and openly praised Orbán's autocratic style of rule. To talk more about Orbán and Trump, we spoke Tuesday with Gábor Scheiring, a former Green Party member of parliament in Hungary, who has a new essay titled "I watched Hungary's democracy dissolve into authoritarianism as a member of parliament - and I see troubling parallels in Trumpism and its appeal to workers." He explains that "strongmen" like Orbán and Trump are subverting democracy "from the inside, gradually," using tactics like gerrymandering and control of the courts to seize and consolidate power.

When you restrict opportunity to a smaller and smaller pool of people, in proportion to the population, the current political situation is inevitable.
Or it unexpectedly wakes a sleeping giant
Who is restricted?
Don't kick down, look up. Those with less economic and political power than you are never the source of systemic issues.
If "Democracy Now" and the "Greens" are so concerned about democracy, why not complain about the EU, which is not a democracy but a politbureau.
Because the EU(SSR) is implementing the policies they like: open borders, mass Third World migration, cultural relativism, welfare programs etc.
True and not true.
democracy mean synergy not personal decisionas it dont like personal decision
@@dvegule920Authoritarianism = If your leader, President defends the sovereignty and well-being of his country and people. Hence, USA/CIA intervention: Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, Ukraine, Syria, endless list
👍👍👍👍absolutely true!!!!!!!
No matter what IQ you are!!!! Both parties are looking to fill their pockets!!! there has to be some kind of law's put in place to stop dark money.
Western Democracy is a SATANIC MAFIA
AiPac needs to be listed as a foreign agent.
my iq are positive
Trump BOASTED in his Univision interview that he had replaced 30% of the Federal Judges as well as stacking the Supreme Court; he WANTS to be the American Vicktor Orban
Have you read "Dark Money: . . . " by Jane Meyer? The "dark side" can not be stopped!
In 2018, a Hungarian Delegate shared w International Colleagues- HUNGARIAN PRIME MINISTER ran on SINGLE ISSUE ANTI-IMMIGRATION CAMPAIGN. She said that "TRUMPISM" wasn't just an American Issue!
(World Community Development Conference in Maynooth, Ireland)
This fella does not come from a country where race is as strong. Juan was right to question this. These think tanks don't understand the power of race as a weapon in this country. It empowers even the poorest non-worker to accept this form of government to keep their own in power.
Race as a political weapon could be more powerfull in countries, where they dont have a clue about other people, who belongs to other races. The unknown factor could be very strong, and it is very strong in Hungary. Party state made moral panic was, and still quite strong in Hungary. The party state can spend a billion in USD every year for propaganda. They can reach their voters quite easily, and they can close them into their own media buble.
Scheiring provides an excellent synopsis of the last 30-50 years.
Орбан, при своей позиции, ничего не теряет, даже сильно выигрывает при ЛЮБОМ исходе событий!
Talking BS
They are Globalists, what do you expect?
Would be nice to hear an opposing view. This guest is pushing globalism hard.
Read my comment above!
DN is a propaganda arm of globalists.
Right. Notice he is associated with Harvard. En Elitist pro Globalist Institution.
So isolationism is a good idea in an Era of a global economy?
@@ernstthalmann4306 that is a dense comment! It is not isolation! HU is practicing a positive international trade with other countries, along with fiscal responsibility, hence they have such a low national debt. It is safety of the country. Sweden is a perfect example they have been overrun by illegals that restored their country within a few years they went from safest to unsafe at.
TDS inspired malarkey.
These liberals are nuts lol I love viktor orban
Becareful what you wish for, you can at some point be in the wrong side of the authoritarian and you will be powerless if you give away your rights.
Orban is not a dictator, the EU has strict laws on elections.
Strict laws are empty phrases. They filled up all the intitutes with party soldiers. They are plesing the Führer.
Since when has any GREEN Party member been good for a national democracy - they are anti labour, anti working class - this guy doesn’t distinguish between legal immigrants and illegal immigrants - legal immigrants who have SKILLS needed - missing from the country’s workforce are and should be welcomed- those entering illegally or flooding with skills already present destroy the wages of the workers in those roles as they work for less just to get a job. They displace existing country workers and this in turn causes an uprising of disharmony in the country by the natural population- those born there or there working prior to being flooded with desperate migrants.
Legal needed skilled migrants always welcome.
When did our government EVER put the people, aka, democracy first?!
The tyranny of the majority (or tyranny of the masses) is an inherent weakness to majority rule in which the majority of an electorate pursues exclusively its own objectives at the expense of those of the minority factions.
Pick one! With one you will still have a chance to influence the future. With the other, you will not.
They are equally vile and despicable men! No matter who wins or who loses, it will be exponentially worse than 2016 and 2020!
Pick one! With Jill Stein as the one, you will still have a chance to influence the future. With the other two, you will not.
Jill Stein For President 2024! Green Party for all other elected positions 2024!
I have voted for Green party candidates for years, including Jill Stein. This time around I fear people like her will not have the opportunity to run again in a serious way should the GOP win. If Biden wins, she still has next time. Thanks for your reply. @@ArleeStarr
How dare the Prime Minister of Hungary defend Hungary's borders!! This is scary.
The best explanation of ultra conservative politics I've ever heard...
Lies lies lies , everybody judges Orban because he is for the Hungarian people , they elected him.
The Führer elected the FOLK. Orban changed everthing for his favor. Laws, intitutes, people in positions, the economy, and use the party media as a weapon.
Like Putin will win the next election. Orban and Putin are two rabid hyenas. The elections in Hungary and Russia are fixed.
I am hungarian. I got the media of opposition parties, I get ads, videos of opposition parties, I can listen to the leftists in the parliament broadcasting. Media is free in hungary. This guy in this video is a failed Hungarian ex-politician from the left. He is claiming in western media but hungarians are not open to leftist bullsxts.
From 9:10 to 10:32
Sums up my political identity
Obviously bias in this report.
DN is a propaganda arm of globalists.
So? Everyone has a bias.
@ernstthalmann4306 the name of the show is "Democracy Now," not "Bais Now".
So what watch Fox News instead?
@@Pleebian94only brain dead sheep’s make comments like that. Common sense is not very Common anymore. Do your own due diligence!
The word "authoritarian" in Harvard/CIA-speak means, a) a country whose leaders keep a tight leash on the their own banksters and fend off western banksters (China, Russia & a few others) or b) a country whose leaders try to attain some sovereign control of their economies despite western bankster influence (Hungary, Venezuela, Nicaragua & others).
"Democracy" in Harvard/CIA-speak = banksters run wild over the sick, dying, aching, worked-to-death bodies of the homeless, the poor and all the "deplorables" - and doing genocide, recently, for all that gas and oil under Gaza and off-shore of Gaza.
I've given up hope that Democracy Now will ever gets its definitions right.
Orban become a billioner in USD, and his family. They have banks, and support the richest man in the world, with my taxes. SAMSUNG, Mercedes, CATL, etc.
that means the company is finally bringing results in Europe, as we can see in the reactions to the definition of family and democratic elections in various countries where VOKE will be BROKE
The party state use VOKE as a moral panic button. The biggest VOKE user in Hungary is party state media. Gender terror used by daily in propaganda, but from the other side. They only use western VOKE bullshit, to scary people.
‘….he’s a non controversial figure because he said this is the way it’s gonna be and that’s the end of it, right? He’s the boss ‘.
The boss? Hungary’s PM Victor Orban.
The ex US president and future presidential candidate speaking in all his glory……
personal decision is above leader decision
American voters elect for war: Pres. Truman The Korean War (1950-1953); Pres. Lyndon B. Johnson & Richard Nixon The Vietnam Era (1955-1975); George H. W. Bush The Gulf War (1990-1991). It's an endless
Hungary 🇭🇺 knows what is good for it. He is a smart man and it is booming.
I thought we all was human beans wanting the best for one another not some
We should be asking why Trump, Orban and others are becoming more and more popular?
God Bless Victor Orban!
Former Hungarian Green Party MP. The emphasis is on FORMER as he was not re-elected. Let me stress: democratically he was rejected by the people. Him and his views were rejected altogether. And you are asking such a failed person? What exactly do you expect him to say? Praising those against whom he lost?
The European green party is a joke pedophiles at that.
There is no fair elections in Hungary. And of course, the FOLK didnt reelected him. The FÜHRER elected the FOLK.
Maybe get your facts before making assumptions? He never even ran for re-election because he decided to stick to academia.
One dictator hosting another.
π'3дец Орбану и Венгрии 😢
Походу вам пиздец 😮
Honestly I don’t know who’s worse? Biden or Trump!
Vote for Jill Stein! The choice is crystal clear. 😮
Trump is unquestionably and obviously worse.
Its easy actually.. trump was mean.. but gave us an amazing economy and no new wars...
Biden is a puppet of his kleptocrats that are trashing our standard of living.. other countries trust in us and the dollar.. and refuses to stop fostering or escalating a new war every 6 months.
Who is facing 91 charges? Who is an adjudicated rapist and defamer? Who doesn't pay taxes and is a business fraudster? Who stole and tried to hide top secret documents that he was not entitled to? I don't think it's that hard to choose. Get out of your echo chamber and put on your critical thinking hat.
@@nacarreira777 that would be Joe dearie. your tds is terminal
14:09 Juan Gonzales gets a very ijmportant point wrong.
Real immigration and real racism are not an issue with the Republican party.
What matters to them is THE RHETORICAL SCAPEGOATING of immigrants and minority races to the ears of their followers and of potential voters, it's HOW THEY USE THE CONCEPT OF immigration & race, not what they actually do to the real thing.
"Authoritarian populist" sounds like oxymoron. I am sure populists are in favor of personal freedoms. (Authoritarian - favoring or enforcing strict obedience to authority, especially that of the government, at the expense of personal freedom) (Populist -a politician, who strives to appeal to ordinary people who feel that their concerns are disregarded by established elite groups)"
I hope everyone takes the time to look into project 2025 before it becomes reality.
Most Americans are in for a delicious surprise. 😅
What's not to like about it? Abortion remains a states' rights issue. Existing immigration laws get enforced. The FBI gets a hard reset and ceases to be a rogue power. The department of education gets broken up, with its powers returning to the states. It just sounds to me like you're trying to fear monger.
Keep Sharing it. We should make multiple good graphics that we can put as our Facebook Background Photo and Profile Photo Frames! I'm not excited to promote JOE until i see change in the middle east policies, but I CAN spend my time being ANTI-TRUMP!
Specifically, what don't you like about it?
For me, the kneecapping of our regulatory institutions. But I will admist I have not read it myself but heard a fair bit of reporting on it. @@meanderinoranges
He's more than likely is trying to get another donor for his campaign. America should be able to see who donates what?
wow i like this talk , fair and confession and peaceful , continue this way without becoming bad later ,
donnors in politics is nazi
She always says one Gonzales. Where are the other ones?
Juan. Not “one”.
bless you lol@@KohalaLover
Hi Juan. Please concentrate on these two phrases: Immigration/ILLEGAL Immigration. I think you'll find your answer if you learn to distinguis between these two rated, but very different things.
Exactly- we want immigration but we want legal immigrants and we need to limit them to skills needed - we must limit the numbers to the supply and demand of the jobs available otherwise you are hurting the working class wages and we need to improve working class wages and not reduce it due to flooding it with cheap labour - this causes disharmony of those born in or already living in the country. Legal immigration of SKILLS needed not immigration of ALL and especially not illegal immigration - you must protect the existing jobs and those occupying them.
Indeed. At least as much, and much, much more.
Viktor Orban, voted in democratically. Is this not a channel that supports democracy.
Not if he can't be voted out in a free and fair election.
@@NJames-dh6kzif true the only difference between him and the deep state is that he, like Vlad.. for better or for worse.. actually represents the will of his constituents. Name one one western leader that holds this virtue to even the slightest degree..
It's a propaganda channel
@@kaizer7568 what was said in this segment that is incorrect?
Guatemala, Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, Brazil, Argentina, Ecuador, Peru, Venezuela, Bolivia, Mexico, Honduras, Suriname and the United States are corrupt countries with human rights abuses with potential political violence, police brutality and war crimes in the Americas.
45 acting like He is the 47th and final president of the USA
This guy makes a lot of sense about how the left in particular didn’t listen to the needs of workers but kept expecting their support and now many have gravitated toward Trump’s I-alone promises of a return of manufacturing and his demeaning of immigrants. He’s not the answer but others were increasingly tone deaf for decades.
The Supreme Court should really pay attention to this interview!
Why?
@@kellywright5282 If you pay attention you'll know. Americans have never lived through a modern day authoritarian government. If you aren't working right now be aware that you would be forced to join the military, or or forced to work in farm fields to make up for not allowing immigrants, and if you are working and think that you don't make enough, wait till you're living in an authoritarian government, and believe me no more freedom of speech or other personal freedoms... and on and on. No rights! People should really read more. You can't just believe that things that Trump says are good for you if you don't know for yourself. That's the biggest problem for people, they don't know real history and how the rest of the world works. They absolutely need to educate themselves. It is how we evolve... by learning from our past.
This discussion presumes people are divided into too main groups! Workers and owners. The exploiters and the exploited. What about those of us engaged in sole proprietorships, or those that cannot work in the traditional sense, or the retired, or indigenous groups that seek community outside the dominant economic system? or…….?
Putin, Orban's and Trump's ally: "Make Alaska Russian Again".
Putin, Orban's and Trump's ally: "The borders of Russia don't end anywhere".

hi good day
Authoritarian ???? In US every corporation has a Authoritarian CEO ! People in Hungary has spok
en !
Gabor at least understands the appeal to working people... who often are culturally conservative regardless of "race"... of any alternative to the the liberal pro-globalist center. The rise of populism on the right shouldn't be at all shocking if one considers how the loudest portion of the so-called left has become hopelessly divided & stuck in fractured identity politics, only coming together to challenge and shame the "normative" majority, which is fun, perhaps, but is politically stupid.... and a liberal (and conservative) establishment center that has become addicted to the big money that can be had by working for bankers and corporations and the endless war machine. Working people make up a majority of the population and they can see how badly they've been screwed over, with each generation now having a harder time of it than their parents and grandparents. The rise of the right stems from the failure of the left to even try to connect, speak for and to, the working class... which is beyond bizarre. If I thought that right populists were principled and truly wanting to improve the lives of working people, I'd sign on, having lost my own faith in what now passes for the left. It seems obvious to me, however, that these "strong men" are in it for themselves, for their friends (if they have any). They always end up helping the wealthy stay wealthy, become more wealthy. Their message to workers is to work harder, to get a firm grip on those boot straps and out-compete their peers, so that they too can become obscenely rich, which is, of course, largely bullshit... and when workers compete with one another rather than cooperate, the bosses and the shareholders rejoice. Workers need a united left, a left that isn't a Trojan beast, a left that isn't bat-shit crazy... a democratic, even libertarian, socialism, governed by those who aren't merely self-serving, who respect and protect personal liberty, while ensuring economic security and an improving standard of living. The "liberty" to debase and exploit others for personal great wealth & power, which appears to be the liberty that matters most to the right, is not the sort of liberty I'm talking about. Maybe. I'm more inspired by political figures such as George Galloway, or Dennis Kucinich, than I am by figures like Trump or Orban. You may say I'm an idiot, but I'm not the only one... (riffing on some former Beatle, no longer among the quick)...
Well said, the V4 - Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic, and Slovakia - ask anybody from those 4 countries - Orban is crushing democracy in Hungary the same way like Putin in Russia.
BS propaganda.
.... Hitler, Mussolini, and Francisco Franco sought each other out and supported one another .... The Orange Insurrectionist is not original.
✌
Mr. Orban gave up to fight NATO and EU against military help to Ukraine. He wanted to get money for Hungary .
Dude this sucks, im not voting 😒 😑 😕 😐 😪 🙄 😒 😑 😕 😐 😪 🙄
Based NATO
Orban hates NATO, but loves $$$$$$ from EU!
Robert Redford made a classic movie "All Is Lost" at the end a hand reached into the ocean to pull him up from the abyss.
With Donald J. Trump as president there will be no hand to pull her (America) up from the certain implosion reaching the bottom of that abyss. 😢
you mean *without Donald J. Trump as President.
YOu are really funny. I hope you will cry a lot in November. Go MAGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is a wake-up call for the Democratic Party!
💖🙏💖
01:32 I'm living in Hungary. I watched to the end what this guy spoken. PURE lies. No joke: The ALL. It's very rare. Mostly this kind guys just "mixing" some truth with the lies, to make more "humanized" or "believe able". But this guy? He wrote a script with lies, composite a speach from them, and pushed out in his mouth. Without laughing! :D This is a true talent. Realy. A PRO liar. Excellent.
Tomorrow Mehdi Hasan??? Can't wait!!!!👍👍👍
another excellent interview . Thanks Gabor Schiering for your insight & analytical view on Victor Orban . Donald Trump really love dictators . That's why I keep saying he is a danger too the Worlds Democracy
I remember when democracy now didn't mind dictators. Now they became almost hacks like the mainstream media.
Fantastic interview. Prof. Scheiring has great insight into the attraction to authoritarian populists by Americans, Hungarians and others. I wonder if this analysis applies to Israel and its embrace of Netanyahu? Or are there different reasons why Israel elected a corrupt, dangerous, genocidal authoritarian who threatens Israel's future by his policies?
Interesting
This liar is too easy to spot lol. Just look out for their eyes darting off to the side and down while they are reading from their scripts. This guy can’t even start off without forgetting his narrative 😅
What on earth are you talking about?
It is actually difficult when you are not speaking to another person but are speaking to a screen.
Guatemala, Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, Brazil, Argentina, Ecuador, Peru, Venezuela, Bolivia, Mexico, Honduras, Suriname and the United States are corrupt countries with human rights abuses with potential political violence, police brutality and war crimes in the Americas.
Are you talking about yourself?

How is he different than someone like Trudeau?
Orbán's people support him, Trudeau's don't.
Ask an ex European living in Canada , Trudeau isn't keen on getting rid of the media, Hungary is walking in Russia's truck, he refused to help Ukraine, now he needs the money from EU, and hopes that if tRump wins, he will be often invited, there will be "love letters" like from Kim.

What authoritarians? Have you ever bothered to even _listen_ to what Orban has to say? Why don't you _invite him_ to your show for an interview? I'm SO TIRED of this obligatory groupthink that's now so sadly reminiscent of the place I grew up in (the communist pre-1989 Poland). I STRONGLY recommend to you, Democracy Now, to cut all the billionaire sponsor links and start a self-supporting channel like Glenn Greenwald, Jimmy Dore, etc. The sponsors' propaganda is what's killing your content.
DOWNVOTED. If I wanted leftist propaganda, I would have tuned into CNN.
Evolve.
This chanell is so not democratic
And if this channel wants more views get this old spinster of the stage
Or you can just stop watching. I don't understand why the likes of you love to hate watching channels with which you do not agree with... What do you do in your free time? Watch 2 girls 1 cup? You know what, I don't want to know the answer... Just go watch whatever sh*t gets you off!
