I think the Philippines have chosen wisely (remember, Duterte was a mayor for 20 some years and did not want to be president ... but the people drafted him and he ran an inexpensive, simplistic campaign and won with the largest margin of popular votes ever in the Philippines!)
We have Trump, THEY have Duterte and the two will meet in the future.
The Philippines depends on and we are sworn to ,,, defend them militarily and China is threatening them right now.
The planet is out of time and needs IMMEDIATE and drastic remedy to insane politicians.
I am of the same mindset, except I abandoned party politics during GW’s reign. Populism is no panacea, and running a successful city or business is no guarantee of success as president. I’m not disparaging Trump or Duterte, I just don’t see the danger receding.
If anything, it’s going to get worse. The old NWO tyrants aren’t giving up; I’m afraid they’re just getting started. The world teeters on the precipice of war, and most people are completely unaware of the nature of this fight. It’s truly a spiritual battle of biblical proportions and consequences.
