So this is why people in pro-democracy countries in Europe think that Donald Trump by far is the biggest threat to world peace, a bigger threat to world peace than even Kim Jong-un, Vladimir Putin, and President Xi. It's for things like

this. Over this past week, while President Biden was meeting with our NATO allies on the 75th anniversary and President Biden was meeting with President Zelensky, Donald Trump invited over to Mar-a-Lago the authoritarian leader of Hungary, Viktor Orban, who Donald Trump is obsessed with. Now, Viktor Orban had previously met with Vladimir Putin before going to Mar-a-Lago. All of the Russian media was reporting that after meeting with Vladimir Putin, Viktor Orban was going to take those messages from Putin to Donald Trump. American media did not report on it until they learned a few days after it was reported in Russian media that Viktor Orban would be meeting Donald Trump. And still, you don't see other than the Midas Touch Network, the media calling this

out that literally a Putin puppet leading an authoritarian regime in Hungary, is now meeting with Donald Trump to try to materially interfere with American foreign policy. So Viktor Orban shows up, he goes to Mar-a-Lago. Donald Trump and Viktor Orban post photos giving each other the thumbs up or giving the camera the thumbs up. A wannabe authoritarian in Donald Trump, an authoritarian in Hungary with a bad GDP and crazy high inflation. Here's what Viktor Orban posts after meeting with Donald Trump this week. Peace Mission 5.0. It was an honor to visit President at real Donald Trump. He's not the president and there should not be foreign intervention like this in our country

at all. At Mar-a-Lago today, we discussed ways to make hashtag peace the good news of the day. He's going to solve it, exclamation point. And to be clear, what that message means is that Donald Trump would give Ukraine to Vladimir Putin and would withdraw any support from the United States to NATO and from Ukraine. That's what that message is. Donald Trump then reposts Viktor Orban's photo and says, Thank you, Viktor. There must be peace. And he puts that in all caps.

And quickly, too many people have died in a war that should have never started, DJT. Now, Donald Trump said that Vladimir Putin's invasion was brilliant. Donald Trump let Vladimir Putin do whatever the hell he wants. I'll show you in a little bit some of the statements that Donald Trump's recently made about Vladimir Putin as well. But Hillary Clinton said it best right here. It's horrifying to see the leader of a major American party align with foreign autocrats like Viktor Orban. Trump is telling you exactly who he is here. His idea of peace is to give Putin exactly what he wants. Are you on Trump's side with Orban, Putin, and dictators around the world, or are you on the side of democracy? And if you're saying, Ben, this is hyperbole, this is hyperbole, so what? Putin's puppet visited

Mar-a-Lago after meeting with Putin to deliver Putin's message to Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago at the same time President Biden is meeting with our NATO allies. So what, Ben? I'm not sure who would say that, but that's what you said. So what? Take a look at this video by Republican voters against Trump. They put together a really good video here of the types of things that Donald Trump said about Putin recently. Play the clip. So for 20 years, I heard that NATO, if Ukraine goes into NATO, it's a real problem for Russia. I've heard that for a long time. And I think that's really why this war started. I'm not sure that this war would have started.

Donald Trump also recently posted about Viktor Orban on a prior visit to Mar-a-Lago. Viktor Orban is a great leader and man. The wonderful people of Hungary are lucky to have them. Really, the entire GDP of Hungary is $189 billion. That's less than the annual revenue of many American corporations. Annual inflation in Hungary is around 20%. But here's what Donald Trump says. This is why Donald Trump idolizes Viktor Orban. Let me show you this clip. He goes, there's a great man in Europe. His name is Victor Orban.

He's a strong man. It's nice to have a strong man running your country. This is what Trump said recently about Orban when he was in New Hampshire. Play this clip. There's a great man, a great leader in Europe, Viktor Orban. He's the prime minister of Hungary. He's a very great leader, very strong man. Some people don't like him because he's too strong.

It's nice to have a strong man running your country. After Donald Trump said that, Russia celebrated Viktor Orban's return from Mar-a-Lago and saying that Trump told him that a message that should be delivered to Putin is that Trump would want to end the war in 24 hours by cutting off all aid to Ukraine on Russian TV, their host, their version of their Sean Hannity, is this scheme by Donald Trump would suit us very, very well. Here is Donald Trump at another event at Mar-a-Lago where he invited Viktor Orban, saying that the reason that Viktor Orban is great is he's the boss. He says it like it is and nobody gets to question him. Donald Trump's fantasies about strongman authoritarians play the clip. There's nobody that's better, smarter, or a better leader than Victor Orban. He's fantastic.

As you know, the prime minister of Hungary. And does a great job. He's a non-controversial figure because he said, this is the way it's going to be, and that's the end of it, right? He's the boss. And now he's a great leader, fantastic leader in Europe and all over the world. I respect him. It's an honor to have you with us, Victor. Very great honor. I'm gonna show you what President Biden said about Viktor Orban in a moment, but let me just show you one more clip of Donald Trump talking about Orban.

Play the clip. World War III, if we're not careful. I was very honored, a very great head of a country. Viktor Orban, Hungary, very powerful. He fronts on both Russia and Ukraine. Knows them both very well. He told me a lot of things. Great guy.

It can tell you a lot about a person who he keeps company with. And yesterday he was hosting at his club, Victor Orban, who says he doesn't think democracy works. Call him a fantastic leader. Seriously, he's been sucking up to win them. Anyway. We recently did a video here at the Midas Touch Network props to our entire team of editors who

put this thing together fairly quickly, which was comparing President Biden's speech from this past week at NATO, addressing the world, to Donald Trump's speech, same time Donald Trump gave the speech where Donald Trump was talking about how he's never even heard of what NATO was until he took office. Here, play the clip. 1949, leaders of 12 countries, including President Truman, came together in this very room and created the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. I didn't even know what the hell NATO was too much before, but it didn't take me long to figure it out, like about two minutes. Today, NATO is stronger than it's ever been in its history. 32 nations strong.

28 countries. 28 countries. Think of that. We know Putin won't stop in Ukraine. Make no mistake. Ukraine can and will stop Putin. You know, Ukraine, when you think Ukraine, I had a very good relationship with Putin. We talked about it. It was the apple of his eye.

President Reagan put it, and I quote, "'You are threatened. We are threatened. You're not at peace. We cannot be at peace.'" And they said, would you protect us? I said, no, I will not protect you from Russia. Again and again at critical moments, we chose unity over disunion. When people who love our country protest on January 6th in Washington, they become hostages. Freedom over tyranny, hope over fear. If you leave Florida, you end up getting shot, mugged, raped.

This is a pivotal moment for Europe, for the transatlantic community, and I might add for the world. Did anyone ever see the lovely movie Silence of the Lambs? Did you see it? Did you ever hear of Hannibal Lecter? He was a lovely man. Reagan knew it then. We know it now.

Our nations will continue to keep faith with what we pledged in years to come. Yes, oh yes, and quickly, says President Trump. Yes, oh yes. I think it's helpful to have an international perspective as well. Here is the Australian, former Australian Prime Minister Turnbull. Here he talks about how he perceived Donald Trump when he was in office. Here, play this clip. Now, what Trump does and what, and of course, Victor Orban, who he's also fascinated with, as you said, does the same thing in Hungary. What he does, what his goal

is, is to divide, take advantage of those divisions, and then use that to, you know, rile up his supporters, you know, so that he can get enough support to win. And it's this, you know, this is supported by the right wing media in America, particularly Fox News, what I call entertainment. And, you know, it's doing unbelievable damage to your country. I mean, you live there. You know what it's like. The problem for the rest of us, we all have a stake in your election, but we don't have a say in it. Here's one more clip of former Australian Prime Minister Turnbull play this clip. When you see Trump with Putin, as I have on a few occasions, he's like the 12-year-old boy that goes to high school and meets the captain of the football team.

My hero. It is really creepy. It's really creepy. And that struck you at the time? Oh, absolutely. It struck everybody. It was like you could touch it. It was creepy.

The creepiness was palpable. Are you trying to say they're having a bromance? No, I'm not saying, I'm not saying, I'm just telling you what I saw. Regrettably, the Republican Party under Donald Trump, and particularly the right wing of the Republican Party, are very sympathetic to Vladimir Putin. I mean, I've been with Trump and Putin. Trump is in awe of Putin. Tyrants are often popular. You see, the key to democracy, liberal democracy, is that it empowers

the majority, but it also, through the rule of law, constrains the majority. And if you get to the point where anybody who can muster a majority, and I don't think Trump can do that, by the way, but anyone who can muster a majority is given absolute power and then can do whatever they like to the minority, that's not a democracy. That is a tyranny. That is an autocracy. Even if it's got the support of 50, 51% of the population. That is not what makes a democracy. A democracy as we understand it

is one where the rule of law protects all citizens and the rule of law applies to all citizens, whether they're the president or the prime minister or an ordinary, you know, elector. I think that says a lot right there. And I think this should be the focus of the media. I know the media doesn't focus on any of these issues, but we're going to keep focusing on them here at the Midas Touch Network. We'll keep pushing them. What's more important

than things like this and Project 2025 and talking about our climate and talking about women's reproductive rights, talking about how Donald Trump wants to be a dictator on day one. It's about democracy. It's about the survival of our democracy. Hit subscribe. Let's get to 3 million together. Thanks for watching.
