Viktor Orbán said and did a bunch of stuff that duped (or forced) people into voting for him. These people clearly would have cast their votes elsewhere had they had the chance.
We know this because we know what result would have been achieved absent Orbán's underhanded maneuvers, i.e., It would have us in power and Orbán on trial or worse.
Where these same 'tactics' are deployed elsewhere (i.e., California), not a beep of concern.
The thing is that there are problems in Hungarian constitutionalism.. but they are (a) similar in type and magnitude to those seen throughout the West (b) Orban and his team seem actively more concerned and conscientious about it , and (c) they have left lots of potential power grabs on the table inexplicably if they, indeed, wanted to short up power irrevocably.
Well pull!

Such is today's neo-democracy....
