Donald Trump’s rally in Georgia came a day after he hosted Hungary’s authoritarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán at Mar-a-Lago. Trump openly praised Orbán’s autocratic style of rule.

Donald Trump: “There’s nobody that’s better, smarter or a better leader than Viktor Orbán. He’s fantastic. He’s the, as you know, the prime minister of Hungary and does a great job. He’s a noncontroversial figure because he said, 'This is the way it's going to be,’ and that’s the end of it, right? He’s the boss.”
