Trump about to slide in Duterte's DMs
This President of ours recently admitted that he could not solve the drug problem even comparing to other countries such as the US that even they could not solve it. Then he attacked the media for it saying that meant that as his experience as mayor of his hometown.
This President is the worst President next to Marcos.

Water is not wet!
i wonder how long it will be before Trump offers to pardon any of those caught committing violence for him?

What's that even supposed to mean?
This sounds like a failure of a parent going "I'll give you something to cry about".
He can only pardon federal crimes.
I think he's saying he'll show them what rights they really have by killing them. It's kind of like a B movie villain one liner.
If I remember, lots of GAF did. Wonder what they think now.

That wouldnt stop him from saying it.
Longer than it took this thread to turn into Trump and the US.

Anyway, there's little this psychopath can do at this point, that's really gonna surprise anyone, he's basically trying to legalize murder, or the closest thing to it.

Ha, how quaint to think he's going to respect the result if he loses.

I forgot about this nutbag
See, this was what I was afraid of. That people around the world would just forget about his scumbag and let him do his crazy thing in my country.
That said, millions upon millions of people loves this guy ugh.
Due out? You think he's going to relinquish all that power willingly?
Over 80%

The last thing I remember was the Philippines still had a city under siege by an ISIS like faction so I had just assumed he's stuck cleaning up that shit for months
Didn't think he had time to look for shit elsewhere

That's the really fucked up part.
At least Trumps approval ratings show that the majority doesn't like him.
But 80 percent for Duerte..ugh

Still? Do y'all have term limits?

are those 80 percent approval numbers actually real, though? I'm asking seriously.

Yeah, there's a huge Filippino population here in Taiwan, and many have baffled me with their devout, "Praise Be to God" religious nature, and yet they herald Duterte as some kind of savior. My brother-in-laws would-be fiancé is the exact same way.
A bit hypocrital, to say the least.
It's like the only problem solving this guy knows is killing shit.
I wonder how he tackles everyday problems...
Aide: "Sir, the mail got stuck in the opening-flap."
Duerte: "Kill the mailbox, kill all the mailboxes in the country!"
Duerte during dinner: "The soup is too salty!"
Waiter: "I will get you a less salty soup."
Duerte: "No, kill the soup and its whole family!!"

Do death squads not also count as crime?
Seriously, be careful. We have lots of Pinoy here, and if someone reads your comments and tips off the wrong people, Duterte is crazy enough to locate your extended family and make an example.
The man is a complete psycho.

That's shitty.
Apparently they have a lot of Punisher fans that took the comics way to seriously.
yup, down to 82% from 86% though
I'm curious about this as well.
My girlfriend's grandmother move to the US about 40 years ago but still only watches news from the Philippines. She loves this guy. It's heartbreaking. Stay safe, Pinoy GAF.

well, that's....progress, I guess.
Out of curiosity, is she also a Trump supporter?
As I understand it it's the mindset that anyone it happens to had it coming, me and my family are among the good ones and will never be affected, etc, taken to the extreme. So just your general selfish and bigoted bullshit.
I think a lot of it is just poor information, like here in the US.
I have seen so many ravenous supporters on Facebook that keep bringing up a child getting raped by drug addicts, as if that makes all drug addicts child rapists.
Probably those most opposed to him either manifested against him and got shot since they were seen as criminals or those who don't dare to manifest just keep quiet out of fear.
I'm gonna say whatever I want, and nobody there in the Philippines shall tell me not to publically criticize him. He is a horrible human being and shall be called out for it.
I don't think she voted or knows anything at all about American politics. She can't read much English, and while she speaks it fairly well you have to speak plainly. Her husband likely did, though. Not sure how he feels about Trump these days.
