It’s a beautiful, though relatively poor, country. Really enjoyed my visit.
Now, this is a perspective I can respect. A country is right in protecting its borders. However, I would not call Hungary more free than the USA.

Not really, but even then you might get varying answers.

Nope...My mom used to have a Hungarian friend that used to cook Chicken Paprikash. I had some Hungarian neighbors years ago...could recognize most foreign languages people are speaking but not Hungarian...unusual language. All Hungarians know Chicken Paprikash though...mentioned it to them...They laughed...

I've made Chicken paprikash a few times. It's quite good.

It's exactly the opposite.

California is so much a two-party system that the Reps are pushing for a recall of a Dem governor. Do you imagine that Hungary could lawfully pursue something like that?

Anyone who thinks California is a one party state is oblivious to the existence of the Central Valley. Which is not a good thing because you should know and understand where your food comes from.

And the California Democrats strongly refuse any responsibility for Devin Nunes because, well, he’s the other team’s problem

I think what Tucker Carlson means, is that Hungary helps its own citizens before it helps illegals. In the U.S. there has been an estimated 1.1 million people that have come over our southern border, that are being fed, clothed, provide with housing, bathed, given free medical care, vaccinated, will receive refugee payments. Meanwhile, we have U.S. citizens that are homeless, many on the street, many veterans, and they get far less. Many of these people coming are also bringing diseases, including covid.
