I just was reading Heather Cox Richardson's Letters from an American entry for 3/17/24. It chilled me to the bone.

It seems that after Victor Orbán visited trump at Mar-a-Lago, he went                                                             to the Washington, D.C., headquarters of the Heritage Foundation on Friday, March 8. There, Orbán spoke privately to an audience that included the president of the organization, Kevin Roberts, and, according to a state media printout, “renowned U.S. right-wing politicians, analysts and public personalities.” 

It continues that this visit                                                                                                                                     was “nothing short of shocking” that Orbán declined to meet with administration officials and instead went to Washington, D.C., to meet with a right-wing think tank. With Roberts’s appointment as head of Heritage in 2021, the conservative organization swung to the position that its role is “institutionalizing Trumpism.” 

That's what is scary. And the Heritage Foundation isn't the only organization doing that, I'm sure.
