How Kristen Welker Established Her Point of View About Hungarian Authoritarian Victor Orbán
Welker provided some insights about Victor Orban as a ruler in Hungary. She said that Victor Orban is against liberal democracy, which thinks that democracy doesn’t work.

Trump stressed he would not have any time for retribution after coming into power.
Why Democracy Is the Future According to Democrats
Democrats viewed Trump’s views as the problematic equation for the democratic rise. Democrats have an idea that democracy is the future because it is as per human nature which aligns and reinforces human nature.

Trump has a proclivity to sideline the democratic characteristics of America. The strongman rulers can damage the edifice of American ideals-life, liberty, and freedom. Democrats asked to vote for Joe Biden in the coming context to secure American democratic characteristics.
Orbán is Not on the Ballot
Welker said that Orban has no agenda to discuss. The real contest is between Trump and Biden. The performance of both candidates should be the criteria for judgment. And in performance, former President Donald Trump has the upper hand to keep the world in order.

All the fire and broken borders are under the presidency of Joe Biden. It is considerable to regard that If Biden is efficient he needs to come in debate with Trump rather than reading teleprompter.
Coming Elections Ahead
The coming elections in November will be a real competition between Trump and Biden. Biden criticized Trump multiple times during his visits and addresses on Thursday night at the State of the Union (SOTU).

Likewise, Trump said President Biden was an angry,hate-filled president at different addresses in the last days “at a rally in Georgia on Saturday night.
What if Trump is elected?
As Trump shared views about authoritarianism in history; he can subvert the American values of democracy.

Democracy is the championed slogan of the American world order. The loss of American democratic commitment can bring new challenges and downs to the American-led world order.
What if Biden is elected?
Biden commits to a liberal agenda and moves forward with the values of democracy and inclusion.
