The president's remarks arrived on the same day that his predecessor praised the autocratic Hungarian leader as "fantastic" and a "non-controversial figure."
President Joe Biden took aim at Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán as the European autocrat met with former President Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago estate Friday.
“You know who he’s meeting with today down at Mar-a-Lago? Orbán of Hungary who stated flatly he doesn’t think democracy works, he’s looking for dictatorship. That’s who he’s meeting with,” said Biden at a rally near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
“I see a future where we defend democracy, not diminish it. I see a future where we defend our freedoms, not take them away.”
