      Because “contarary to national interests” means “any investigation that targets friends of mine”

        At first I naively thought “why is that a bad thing?”, but then realized who exactly decides what these “national interests” are?

        Definitely using some “weasel words” in their policy to get away with some shady shit.

          Any law that you see that you think “Wow, no way they can enforce that! That would get EVERYBODY in trouble” is a law that is intended to be selectively enforced against unwanted people

          If you believe that, then I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you.

              “You guys literally just claim things without any evidence”

              How ironic…

              You, just a few comments ago:

              “that is not how I interpret it or how they intended it”

              If you’re so sure of their intent then where is your evidence?

              You’re doing the exact same thing you accused the other commenter of; you literally just claimed something without any evidence.

          If something is against “national interest” and your president is trying to become an autocrat, that means they can essentially pick and choose what national interest is. This should be setting off alarm bells in EVERYONE’S head as an obvious grab for power.

          I’m not american, so I don’t have direct skin in the game, but everyone on both sides of the political spectrum who don’t self identify as fascist should be against this.

          If you don’t interpret this as something extremely dangerous, you need to have a sit down and really think about the implications.

      In Hungary, state institutions like the police of the tax bureau only target people and companies outside of Fidesz’es interest group. That’s what they want to adapt, so every company will fall in line with Project 2025.

          The Heritage Foundation not only helped Orbán into power, but also learned a lot from their playbook.

              Here’s an article on the Heritage Foundation’s website explaining why they want to help him:

          You are just assuming their intentions based on nothing. Why is your assumption more valid than anyone else?

      Think about how many times in the last few months Trump has complained about the rigged trials. Now imagine him being able to unilaterally decide which investigations are lawful and which aren’t.
