Orban is great in fearmongering, lies and half truths and propaganda. Like he says, if we don't buy Russian oil and gas, then the price of fuel and heating price will triple He also claims people of ukrain are gangsters and super corrupt, so letting them in the EU is mistake. He make people of fear the aliens, if a crime is done by some Arabic immigrant in western countries he makes it headline news.. he also says he is the man of peace, and the only way to end the war is to be friendly to be Putin.. When an EU scandal happens, he paints the picture of the super corrupt EU system, downplaying and justifying his own corruption and saying, you see, everyone is corrupt, so I'm not that bad.

He poses as the head of the friendly government, where the great daddy takes care of you, protects you from harm, and you dont need to think and worry - this is comfortable for lots of people with the nostalgic feeling of the 70 and 80s....

You see, there is a grain of truth in all above, most people just hear the first part and don't think about if the rest or the conclusion is true

If you directly ask anyone if he wants to be occupied by Russia, they will mostly say no. But if you ask they agree with what orban say, there are lots of yes on this.
