Orban's overture on ondoyant Oval Office occurrence...

---

The USA has elected its next President. Ows delayed reaction: crazy week for me in work and play; trying to sort slight problems in Colombia, Chile and Spain.  What a job! Hardly read any news so far (reams to get through!) re the fantastic and hoped for election of a POTUS to break the mould (not mold). The Donald may not be your cup of tea but I get the feeling he will do a great job: a la Ronald Reagan. This will be VERY good for the UK and Brexit. 2016: the year the worm turned.



A message to POTUS-elect Trump and VP Pence: be all you can be. Make the USA* great again.



[edit] 2:15 pm : Highlighting and concurring with Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orbán [in London] who said "The world has always benefited whenever it has managed to release itself from the captivity of currently dominant ideological trends"...

..."This also gives the rest of the Western world the chance to free itself from the captivity of ideologies, of political correctness, and of modes of thought and expression which are remote from reality: the chance to come back down to earth and see the world as it really is."

 [*there are others in 'America' you know]

"We have learnt that reality is that which does not disappear – even if we no longer believe in it. This is why we always measure everything against reality, and why we do not confuse reality with our desires." (Viktor Orbán**), quoted by John at The Slog: "Why the undecided Brits should listen to the radical realism of Viktor Orban – and Vote Leave" 

Radical realism, yes indeed: "Viktor Orban talks more sense in one paragraph than the entire Brussels-am-Berlin dystopians have managed during a decade of controlling, cloud-based, mendacious tosh." Excellent stuff: this week's Saturday Essay on The Slog covers the EU actions over current 'refugee' immigration ([this] isn’t crisis management, it is rank bad dictatorial top-down stubborn governance. Not only will it (like the euro) end in tears, it is rapidly unravelling what's left of the original myth of a borderless Europe."): ... "For me, it is the hypocrisy, bullying, amateur-night and anti-libertarian nature of Brussels that we need to get away from..." Amen to that.



More from John, regarding the multi-culti experiment in general: "This ocean of evidence about the dangers of multiculuralism bounces off the pc head in the manner of a featherlite pingpong ball. For three decades, they ignored public opinion about mass immigration, and engaged in a much-resented orgy of both positive discrimination on ethnic grounds, and appeasement of ideologico-religious attitudes utterly at variance with British tolerance and democracy." [sic]  [...]

"…the numbers involved being far less important than the cultural mismatch involved."

And more from Orbán: "We’ve seen the caliphate at work before, and once was more than enough."... This month there will be a referendum in Hungary 'in opposition to the new European immigration system’s compulsory resettlement quotas'. ..."Brussels must not overstep the boundaries of its own conceptions. It must not turn against the European people. The European Union must not be a kind of Soviet Union reloaded."
