It's especially funny how he keeps saying that things are somehow really bad in Europe. I mean sure, it sucks if you're in Ukraine, Russia or Belarus for example, or in the areas in Southern Europe which now burn every summer, and we do have our own problems, like the rise of fascism etc.
But come on. It's still generally quite nice here.

in that regard, it's always nauseating when I hear Trump talk about Viktor Orban. I mean, I understand why he does, he just loves his dictators and strongmen ... but living in Europe, it just gives you pause when one of the candidates for US president fawns over Hungary of all places and Orban of all people. Not exactly something to take inspiration from.
It's funny though when Trump complains that Orban told him "Europeans are scared of Trump" instead of "respect Trump". Nobody respects you over here,
sir. Fear? Sure. But not in the way he'd want ... I'd rather compare it to a coked-up monkey with a machine gun. Sure, I'd be scared of that, but not because it's oh so powerful, but because it's unpredictable and clearly in a situation it should never be in.
