Donald Trump Jr, four months after being hit with a $4 million fine and a ban on serving as an officer of a New York company for two years, is seeking opportunities elsewhere — namely, Hungary.
The former president’s eldest child arrived in Budapest on Thursday morning on an invitation from the Budapest Chamber of Commerce and Industry. There, he met with Prime Minister Viktor Orbán and gave a talk entitled “The World According to Donald Trump Jr.,” an event first reported by Hungarian journalist Szabolcs Panyi.
Trump Jr’s visit focused on discussions about “the future of Hungarian-American relations, the ongoing Russian-Ukrainian war, and opportunities for peace creation,” according to Zoltan Kovacs, spokesperson for Orbán’s office.
Multiple legal experts say foreign policy discussions between Trump Jr — who is not employed by the US government — and a foreign prime minister raise questions about the Logan Act, which prohibits unauthorized diplomatic activity in certain circumstances.
On one hand, you have Betteridge’s Law of Headlines which says “no”. On the other, the headline is asking if a Trump broke the law.
As melon scratchers go, that’s a honey doodle.
To think conservatives are upset at Hunter using his name to get jobs. If this idiot wasn’t named Trump, there’s no chance in hell he’d be meeting with any world leaders.
And it’s never an issue when it comes to Trump’s kids or Jared getting deals. Ivanka’s Chinese trademarks couldn’t have been rushed for a political purpose, but Hunter’s speaking payments obviously were.
I think the more compelling point is that Don Jr. is doing business with an authoritarian autocrat, and discussing the Russian-Ukrainian war. His dad had a chat with Orbán three months ago, and said if he takes office he’ll withdraw all US support from Ukraine. Legal or not, this is concerning.
Lmfao. The name of his talk was “The World According to Donald Trump Jr.”? What kind of 6th grade summer vacation report-ass title is that. What a fucking idiot. Holy shit, I’m legitimately giggle-shitting on the toilet for that one.
Holy shit, I’m legitimately giggle-shitting on the toilet for that one.
Then you were probably more productive than that talk was.
If the success metric is “quantity of shit produced” then I think you’re very wrong.
…a talk entitled “The World According to [Donald Trump Jr.,”…
Life is like a line of cocaine, you never know how high you’re going to get.
Or if there is going to be some surprise fentanyl.
Jesus Christ. I didn’t think anyone could be shorter than little Don.
This is the best summary I could come up with:

“To have the Republicans’ likely candidate taking a position on foreign policy [as it relates to Russia and Ukraine], getting close to actively opposing what the administration is doing, is a worrying situation we ought to be talking about,” Baker told The Independent.
Orbán’s success leading an “authoritarian” government relied on “decapitating” the civil service and replacing it with his extremist allies, which mirrors the Project 2025 strategy, Scheppele told The Independent.
Wes Coopersmith, the Chief of Staff for the Heritage Foundation who oversees Project 2025, previously told The Independent that replacing employees with Republican allies if Trump is elected would be “democratic.”

He’s also a raging drug addict with guns. When does the trial start?
