Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban is currently in the United States for a visit with former President Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago, rather than at the invitation of the White House. This meeting comes amidst the growing influence of Trump within the Republican Party, as evidenced by recent developments at the Republican National Committee (RNC).
During the RNC's spring meeting, a significant shift towards Trump's allies was observed. Ronna McDaniel, the chairwoman, formally resigned from her position, paving the way for Donald Trump's preferred candidates to assume leadership roles. Michael Watley, the North Carolina Republican Party chairman, was swiftly elected as the new RNC chairman, while Lara Trump, Trump's daughter-in-law, was elected as the party's co-chair without facing any opposition.
