The stakes of the election are clear: for more than 15 years, Fidesz has proven that it is capable of protecting Hungarian families, our borders, peace, and a work-based society—even in times of crisis.
Opposing this stands a left-wing party directed from Brussels, which, while serving foreign interests, would drag our country into war and allow migrants into Hungary. We must not allow the fate of the country to be moved like a chess piece. Let us stand by the Hungarian path.
What is your opinion on this Verlap drama? On the one hand, anyone who thinks in 2026 that an election can be won by acquiring a website is, in my view, revealing everything about their capabilities and intentions. I believe everyone knows exactly where Fidesz stands, what we believe in, and what can be expected from us.
Over the past 15+ years, we have continuously proven that we are the party working for a work-based society: we have created an additional one million jobs, and today everyone who works is in a better position than before. We stand by families. People can thank us for countless family-support measures—tax exemptions, 3% loans, and much more—that help families and also make it possible for everyone to have a home of their own.
It is also well known where we stand on migration. We are the party that has always, firmly and decisively, rejected illegal migration—despite all pressure. And we can see how well this decision has worked out compared to what is happening in major Western European cities. Not only on New Year’s Eve or during riots, but on roughly 360 days of the year.
It is also known that we choose the Hungarian path. We do not allow Brussels to dictate to us. We will not support Ukraine’s accession to the European Union, war loans, financial transfers to Ukraine, or involvement in the war simply because someone in Brussels demands it. That is not who we are.
At the same time, it is also clear what the Tisza party stands for—not because they openly and courageously say it, but because behind them there is a left-wing, Brussels-directed force that pushes and tells them what they must do in order to be “good leftists” and “good Brussels politicians.”
In my view, the choice is clear. There is a reliable, predictable Fidesz that for more than 15 years has not made excuses, but has shown what it believes in and that it can protect the Hungarian people. Covid may come, migration may come, war may come—and on the other side there is a Brussels-controlled force that wants to install a figure who can be moved like a chess piece, embodied in the person of Péter Magyar.
That is what this election is about.
🎭 “Election Drama” – A Rhetorical Dissection
(The logic of Alexandra Szentkirályi’s statement)
1️⃣ False dilemma: “either us, or catastrophe”
“The stakes of the election are clear…”
🔹 Technique: binary worldview
- Fidesz = protection, peace, family, stability
- Opposition = war, migration, foreign interests
👉 Problem:
There is no middle ground, no nuance, no policy debate. Anyone who is not with us is automatically portrayed as a threat.
2️⃣ Longevity = competence (false causality)
“For more than 15 years we have proven…”
🔹 Technique: “we’ve been doing it for a long time → therefore we’re doing it well”
👉 This is not evidence, but self-justification.
❗ What is omitted:
- inflation,
- the housing crisis,
- healthcare,
- education,
- real wages,
- the freezing of EU funds.
3️⃣ “Brussels-directed left” – manufacturing an enemy
🔹 Techniques:
- external enemy,
- internal traitor,
- fear of lost sovereignty.
👉 Classic Cold War narrative:
not a political opponent → but an agent of a foreign power.
This is emotional blackmail, not debate.
4️⃣ Migration panic – permanent state of emergency
“Let’s look at Western Europe…”
🔹 Techniques:
- cherry-picked examples,
- criminalizing generalizations,
- continuous fear maintenance.
❗ No data, no comparison—only emotional imagery.
5️⃣ “We know, they won’t say it” – claim without proof
“It can be known what Tisza stands for…”
🔹 Technique: insinuation
- no quotes,
- no documents,
- no concrete decisions.
👉 The expected reaction from the audience:
“If they say it, it must be true.”
6️⃣ Péter Magyar as a “chess piece”
🔹 Techniques:
- dehumanization,
- suggestion of incompetence,
- character assassination.
👉 He is not debated—he is reduced to an object.
7️⃣ The “Hungarian path” as a religious dogma
“We are the stable, predictable force”
🔹 Technique: creed, not program
- no future vision,
- no new commitments,
- no accountability.
👉 Pure loyalty test.
🧠 Overall picture – what is this really?
This text is:
❌ not an election program,
❌ not a policy debate,
❌ not fact-based argumentation.
It is:
✅ fear campaigning,
✅ identity politics,
✅ enemy construction,
✅ emotional coercion.
The “website drama” segment is particularly revealing:
👉 anyone who in 2026 is still fighting symbolic battles is not offering a future—but defending the past.
