BAKIT NAGBAGO SYA? – Trump called the Philippines ‘a special place’ in 2012

“Let it be known that the Philippines and the Filipino people stand in solidarity with other peace-loving countries and individuals in fighting and opposing terrorism in all its forms,” the secretary concluded.

PS: Many compare our new President Rodrigo Duterte with Donald J. Trump, with many American and European outlets describing him as the “Trump of the East.” It’s because their rhetorical style can have occasionally more bluster than actual policy meat. However, the similarity ends there.

Prior to winning the presidency last May, Duterte has over thirty years of experience as a public servant while Trump has none. His only claim to fame is running a business empire that he only inherited from his father. So if we’re talking about actual record, there’s a huge difference right there.
