  1. Don't you worry. Orban is quite the Trump fanboy. And a Putin fanboy. Sycophancy works on both.

  6.  @katalinkozak9869  Uh, practically all US ambassadors throughout the world are changed whenever there's a new president. In US thinking, it's a way to reward generous campaign donors. Qualifications are of secondary importance. Inevitably, they end up with non-diplomats in charge, who need on-the-job training from their long-suffering staff. When Trump took office in 2017, he sacked the existing ambassadors, but failed to appoint new ones in a timely fashion. The US diplomatic service was none the worse for wear, because the number twos, who are career diplomats, substituted. I bet their host countries were mighty pleased to deal with professionals for a change.

  7.  @madmax6827  I thought convicted felons are disqualified from positions in law enforcement. Your standards must be lower.

  8.  @madmax6827  Two days ago, CNN opened with this: "Donald Trump has been reelected to the White House as a convicted felon who is awaiting sentencing in his hush money case in New York and still working to stave off prosecution in other state and federal cases." Trump's conviction is ironclad. Silly you for trying to deny cold, hard facts. Uh, you likened Trump to a sheriff. You may want to look up what a sheriff is. Or do you suffer from short-term memory loss?

  9.  @madmax6827  Aren't you a silly denialist. You can go do a criminal record check at your local police department. Be warned, however, that the nice policeman behind the counter will roll his eyes at you.
