... and in this context, that means what? They falsely smeared Soros, who is really a good guy, and a friend to all Hungarians?
What I type now will maybe help the odd person who reads this. FTN is more an entertainment show than a serious attempt to understand anything. They copy & paste news articles into a stack of ‘prep’ and then give off-hand takes about it twice a week.

If you take them too seriously, you end up believing ridiculous things, like incidental facts about campaign consultants that Orbán hired 10 years ago explains the better part of Hungarian right-wing politics.

What’s more, this manic focus on connections between people, rather than what they actually portend, means you get a lot of this backwards, or just wrong. i.e., Orbán’s government lobbying the US becomes American campaigns consultants managing Orbán’s party.
