The dominoes in Europe are about to start falling

Weak constitutional republics like Hungary are being taken over by strongmen and dictators because of this virus.

Did something change today? Victor Orban is one of the more clear thinking leaders in Europe.

Time for Hungary to re-unite with Austria and bring the Habsburgs back to power.

Central, Eastern and Southern European countries are always just a bad economic cycle away from tyranny. No real tradition or culture wrapped up in democracy or self-rule.

Weak, corrupt, trans-national oligarchies like the EU are being revealed as nothing more than vehicles of money laundering and control because of this virus.

Power has been stripped away from the governing bodies in Hungary. Orban can rule by decree now. Whatever he says is law.

If it requires a "strongman" like Orban to stop the insane Islamification of Europe, then we need more "strongmen" in Europe.
Right now, liberal constitutional republics are failing.
Sweden is committing suicide.
Britain is covering up mass child rapes.
Paris is a complete shithole.

Well, this isn't a good development. Hungary and Poland are about the only good European countries still standing.

Viktor Orban was PM of Hungary from 1998 to 2002, and current PM since 2010. Hungary has traditionally been anti-Socialist, especially since the 1956 Soviet invasion, and, along with Poland, was very pleased to see DJT become POTUS in 2016.
For purpose of reference, COVID-19 appeared in late 2019.
I rarely respond to posts with frank criticism, but you literally could not have picked a worse example for your thesis of COVID-19 causing overthrow of constitutional republics.

Our own House Democrats showed why republics fail during the CARES negotiations

Hungary has been experiencing democratic backsliding for around a decade now, when Orban came into power the second time. Now he is using the Coronavirus to claim extralegal emergency powers and the authority to make all decisions.

Yes, what local and state governments are doing here in what is supposed to be a free society is alarming enough. But the President shutting down the whole country and suspending the constitution is scary.

In actuality, our governors want Trump to be more dictatorial. They were all complaining that he hadn’t ordered lockdowns and whatnot. In reality, they want to deflect blame from themselves and on to Trump for their own failings.
