I do rather hate that so many news orgs seem to be using polymarket et al as a drop-in replacement for actual polling, because polymarket is loosely affiliated, if at all, with reality. It’s a fucking betting platform. There’s nothing scientific or statistical about it that aligns with demographic realities.

Lol

Did you say thank you?

Since then, betting markets show Orbán’s stock has fallen marginally, though there is no suggestion that his declining fortunes have been caused by Vance’s intervention.

Betting markets. Grain of salt taken.

JD Vance is the human equivalent of a sad trombone

One can only hope.

the Trump bump killed Pierre Poilievre’s 30% lead in Canada, and even after the loss, his MPs are all looking to defect to the Liberals.

These guys are clueless, this is not what Canada wants to see in political leadership…

The walking ballot-poison.

Chef’s kiss!

Hmmm, couch fucker should do a world tour. Damage them all.

Alternative theory: Western news’s emphasis on this made more people (on Polymarket, the poll in question) aware that Orbán was actually being challenged. I’m not sure if that holds true for voting Hungarians.

I know he kills Orban’s chances just like he killed the pope.

Why are we taking g the opinions of degenerate addicts and pretending it is relevant or scientific in any way?

smug lol

I was really wondering about that. At the time, I was saying to myself, “This is not the endorsement you think it is, Orban.”, lol.
