Duterte told Americans to fuck off multiple times while he sold his country to China. Now it seems China is screwing Philippines so Duterte is changing his tune and trying to suck up to US and Russia.
Stop equating other supposedly "populist" leaders to Trump.
Boris Johnson in UK is now turning out to be a disappointment.
Scott Morrison in AU, while not as bad, is turning out to be spineless and letting aussies be kept under lockdown.
This ain’t the full story. Duterte likes Trump. But he can’t get the help Trump promises because of the bipartisan bullshit in the US. But he likes Trump a lot. And he is so much like Trump that he just wants what’s best for his country.
He needed some weapons. The US said they’ll help but cannot deliver. He waited but it never happened. He understood that Trump is limited because of the stupid Congress we have. Russia on the other hand delivers so he welcomes them.
And not sure what you’re talking about Duterte selling his soul to China... the Philippines and China are not friends. Believe me.
If Duterte thought he could destroy China, he would. China isn't above breaking every humanitarian war protocol to annihilate him and everyone involved though.

Simply wrong. Duterte is just trying to play both sides to get as much money as possible. He has absolutely no problem sucking up to China, though, and he's selling out the Philippines in the process.
This is also, incidentally, damaging the U.S. containment strategy in the Pacific, by allowing China to bypass the "First Island Chain" entirely. China isn't going to give that up just because Duterte turns around and cuts a better deal with the U.S., so that fucking moron has basically permanently harmed our defense.
Duterte is a POS. Yeah we like tough talk on Soros but this guy is a scab. He sides with China as soon as the wind changes direction.
Also climbed the ladder with a good deal of extrajudicial killings and vigilante campaigns. People dead in the streets with "drug dealer" signs on them (drug dealer or not).
You got it, brother. Duterte is a Marcos-loving piece of shit. Initially, he seemed to be out of the box, somewhat OK kind of crazy when he started taking out the drug dealers, but then later showed his true colors.
The issues with Duterte are not (just) about his "execute all the druggies" thing. If it were just that, I'd say go for it. But he's selling out to China and destroying the U.S. defense strategy in the Pacific.
That's on top of his being a fucking moron when it comes to the WuFlu, and his truly batshit insane statements about his past homosexuality and his religious beliefs (such as they are).
I think what many of you are failing to realize is that your thinking about a country is only in one direction, There are different factions in most countries trying to achieve different goals. (sell-outs vs Nationalists) Even in the USA. Half the time the military is working against the interests of America and working for the globalists (which Trump is trying to weed out). Durterte wants what is best for his country, not himself, but only has limited ways to accomplish it. The Philippines should be for what is best for the Philippines, not what is best for USA. Every country should be this way, and every citizen should be for what is best for their own country. PERIOD.

Trump is unique so far. Don't lump them together.

Yeah I second the part about china. Duterte wants war with china over the south china sea bullshit.

Salvini in Italy is the closest thing to Trump in the whole planet.
I'd say Bolsonaro in Brazil. Unfortunately, Brazil's news media has been destroying him over his refusal to lock things down for the WuFlu.
Haha, Salvini is more cool.
Salvini last year was partying on the beach, with hot bitches dancing to the national anthem
No fucks given. The leftists did a massive collective REEEEE, it was glorious. It triggered the commies so much!
Let's see if Bolsonaro can top that!
Other countries aren't the US and need to look out for their own interests.
If those interests align with ours then great, we can be friends. If they don't, no hard feelings, until next time.

DO NOT TRUST. DO NOT ASSCOCIATE.
Completely disagree. He loves his country and doesn't give a fuck about protocols. (I used to live there)

Don’t go worshiping that fucker.

You're painting too broad a stroke there.
Agree that degenerate behavior will lead to the downfall of a society built by those who were more disciplined and stronger-willed.
Disagree that drug addiction is not a disease (it is), for some the answer is therapy, for others the answer is tough-lovin.
Sometime Duarte just needs to shut the fuck up and let the chips fall where they may...
Why warn him?
Why would he warn him?
Why would he warn him?

In all fairness, Duterte is a fucking psycho.
He looks like he has emperor Palpitines skin problems in that pic.
I would love to see how high American bounties on this demon would go.
Fucking LOVE Duterte!!!!
not sure if retarded or insane
