A great day for liberal democrats everywhere.

Prime Minister Viktor Orban of Hungary, a lodestar for MAGA culture warriors and right-wing populists in Europe, conceded defeat on Sunday in a general election, breaking the momentum of a global nationalist revival promoted by President Trump.

Speaking to supporters Sunday evening in Budapest, Mr. Orban said the “election results, although not complete, are understandable and clear. They are painful for us but unequivocal.”

He congratulated the opposition, saying: “The responsibility and opportunity to govern were not given to us.”

But, he vowed in his surprisingly early concession speech: “We are not giving up. Never, never, never.”

It’s been quite a week for Peter Thiel’s fake Appalachian messenger boy.
