I think he believes in God naman pero ayaw nya ng religion.
I campaigned online among friends, acquintances and even strangers and voted for Duterte because I believed in his vision of a crime-free, corruption-free, redtape-free, and drug-free Philippines.
I was also banking on his promise that he will stop cursing and be statesman-like in his conduct when he becomes President. He said it when his ratings dipped after he allegedly cursed the Pope. But most of all, I was hoping he will have the balls to stand up against China, like what he said during his campaign that he will plant the PH flag on the Scarborough Shoal.
I still believe in his vision of a crime-free, corruption-free, redtape-free, and drug-free Philippines. But all that support evaporates when he attacks people with a double-standard. He criticizes below the belt but is onion-skinned to even the smallest admonition of him.
And the pivot to China and Russia, two failed Communist countries and now failing economies, is a face-palm. Both countries are notorious for serious human rights violations. Maybe the appeal for him.
But the PH and the Filipino people will always embrace Democracy and the rule of Law. It's in our genes, our soul as a nation. A gentle, kind, freedom loving people with a generous heart.Sooner or later, like me, when all the initial expectations of his Presidency has died down, I don't know where his big mouth will be found.Time and again, what failed the PH are its politicians. There is a silver lining to this. Next time people will have learned their lessons in politics the hard way.
