No.

In a dictatorship only a few owns all the wealth. Keeping the mass poor and uneducated, a regime can easily control them, i.e. propaganda universe.

shithole and the republican party are following that scenario. In Hungary , the citizens are sick and tired of Orban. The masses in Hungary are poor because Orban and his comrades are hogging the wealth. Hungary today - one of the poorest countries in Europe.

This is what shithole and the Republican party are trying to do to the USA.
