from The Weekend Hosted by Jackie Alemany, Jonathan Capehart, Eugene Daniels, Ankush Khardori, Laura Barrón-López, David Rohde, Anne Applebaum, Cisco Aguilar
April, 5 2026, 8 AM; Vice President JD Vance is heading to Hungary next week in what appears to be a show of support for prime Minister Viktor Orbán -- just days before the country's election. Hungary's leader of 16 years could be in real trouble, with polling showing that center-right candidate Peter Magyar is currently leading. President Trump has already endorsed Orbán, who has faced condemnation for his authoritarian actions. Anne Applebaum joins The Weekend to discuss what Vice President JD Vance's upcoming trip to Hungary, just days before its key election, has to do with voters back here in the United States.
