The Conservative Political Action Conference is the largest and most influential gathering of conservatives in the world. Launched in 1974, CPAC brings together hundreds of conservative organizations, thousands of activists, millions of viewers and the best and brightest leaders in the world. It is being held in Dallas, Texas!
Former Vice President Mike Pence and former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley, who have also been floated as possible 2024 contenders, are not scheduled to speak at the event. Republicans are missing the boat by passing up the best in the party, these two.
Orban at the Conference 2022
Instead, the main speaker was Viktor Orban b: May 31, 1963, Prime Minister of Hungary. Now, when people are invited to be the key speaker like he was, it's because they are admired and honored. Viktor Mihály Orbán is a Hungarian politician who has served as prime minister of Hungary since 2010, previously holding the office from 1998 to 2002. He has presided over Fidesz, since 1993, with a brief break between 2000 and 2003. He is known to be a big anti-Semite.
He was introduced by the announcer say, "Ladies and Gentlemen, this is how we fight! This is Victor Orban."
The Hungarian prime minister, under fire over a July 23 speech, highlighted a type of nationalistic populism taking hold on the American right. Orbán got a warm CPAC reception after 'mixed race' speech blowback. “I’m here to tell you that we should unite our forces,” said Orbán, the Hungarian prime minister who has found himself increasingly alienated from democratic countries in Europe, as he has opposed immigration and liberal views on family and gender — and increasingly close with the MAGA-aligned American right.
Touching on his signature issues, the far-right leader railed against immigration, globalism and gender fluidity as he declared that the “West is at war with itself,” describing an ideological “battle for Western civilization” he said would be fought in Washington and Brussels. His July 23 comments that Hungary must not become a “mixed-race” country, pointing to other nations in Europe with large immigrant populations. One of Orbán’s top aides resigned over his comments, saying his speech sounded as if it were given by a “Nazi.”
Orbán received a welcome reception from American activists who seemed unfamiliar with — but intrigued by — his policy of increased government spending to promote traditional marriage and encouraging citizens to have more children. Matt Schlapp, who chairs the American Conservative Union that hosts CPAC, said after Orbán’s controversial remarks that the conference would “let the man speak.”
And Schlapp and his organization, like Tucker Carlson and other right-wing American commentators, have developed a cozy relationship with Orbán and his government in Hungary. In May, CPAC held its first conference in Hungary, where former President Donald Trump addressed the audience by video. On Tuesday, Orbán was welcomed by Trump to his golf club in Bedminster, N.J., where he called the Hungarian leader a “friend. “The globalists can all go to hell,” Orbán said to enthusiastic applause. “I have come to Texas.”
When President Donald Trump hosted Orban in 2019 in Washington, he should have known was welcoming a leader who deals in hateful anti-Semitic tropes. He covers it up with naive people he addresses by saying Jews are safe in Israel and in Hungary. Do we all still believe everything we are told? Would you believe words out of the mouth of Alex Jones? He was just on trial and lost for lying about Sandy Hook's children whose hoax Jones peddled caused the parents a living hell.
The 2022 Conservative Political Action Conference was held on February 24 to 27 in Orlando, Florida. Speakers included former U.S. president Donald Trump, Florida governor Ron DeSantis, and former Democratic congresswoman and presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard.
The man brings to the mind how Hitler started his course in life. How can humanity swallow such beliefs and repeat the most horrible period of all time by swallowing such a person again? Last year, Orban raised concerns in Hungary’s Jewish community when he praised the country’s interwar leader Miklos Horthy, a Hitler ally, and used an image of Jewish U.S. financier George Soros in an anti-immigration billboard campaign. For Horthy, Hitler served as a bulwark against Soviet encroachment or invasion. Horthy was obsessed with the Communist threat. One American diplomat remarked that Horthy's anti-communist tirades were so common and ferocious that diplomats "discounted it as a phobia".
