Simicska called Orbán "geci," a Hungarian insult that literally translates to "sperm." He backed an opposition party, the far-right Jobbik faction, in the 2018 elections. That year, Politico named him one of the world's most 28 influential people https://t.co/nCPPXjHgXH https://t.co/XCFZDhZ2xJ — PolitiTweet.org

Orbán decided he didn't want to share power. Beginning around 2014, he attacked Simicska behind the scenes — a fight that went extremely public the next year, when Simicska's top deputies resigned en masse to avoid getting on the government's bad side. https://t.co/OizJNVEGo1 — PolitiTweet.org

But Orbán doesn't play by democratic rules. He went after Simicska's business empire, working to dry up its funds. In the 2018 elections, Orbán and Fidesz again won a two-thirds majority — in an election international observers concluded was unfair https://t.co/3JYnmsdYUY https://t.co/xws3BmkKqd — PolitiTweet.org
