Then all of you need to come to my country and actually see the improvement he has done. I have no idea where people get the reports he's murdering a lot of people because we've had those for years with rebels, terrorist and criminal organizations running rampant on their own but no one cared for us.

This guy went to war against illegal drugs, has peace talks with rebels that looks like it's actually working and he's the enemy of the world.

I will not defend what he said because for godforsaken reason Separation to him means a different path but Sever means to cut ties but if I'm not mistaken both words are Synonyms and means the same.

Looks like another misspeak from the old man.

I would say he is a good leader for his people and the country's well being, but he is horrible when it comes to world diplomacy.

That's because he sucks at how he says things.

I shit you not my friend before that cut ties thing he already said he is not breaking any alliances with anyone, he was in China already then and just tonight he clarified that he is going a different foreign policy than the one the US wants but cannot SEVER ties with them.

But he used the word SEPARATE which means the same thing. I tell you guys, he is freaking over 9999 hopeless when talking. Too old and anyone who has a hard nosed grand pa can probably relate.

He was trying to flatter the Chinese to get more money and ended up generalizing cutting ties with the US which he already clarified he would not. Hopeless with words I tell you.

There are times we just want him to shut up because he already did great with his talking points then he goes out of script and BOOM wtf moment, confuse everyone harder than a flash bang.

So what's his reasoning? That he felt insulted?

Anyway that guy seems crazy. I just hope the country will be ok under his rule.

He used poor choice of words. Stupid I swear.

But he clarified before that No alliances will be broken but the US will no longer dictate our foreign policy using aid as bait.

He even clarified tonight that the Filipino people will kill him if he does sever ties with the US and he is right. 

No fucking way we are missing Marvel and DC movies.

The Philippines has 5-8% of growth rate per year. This is bad for the USA, but I don't know if they will be able to grow like that with China and Russia.

With lack of US citizens visiting the country, I'm sure that will go down. 🙄

Will he also cut the tourism ? "In this venue, I announce my separation from the United States both in the military — not maybe social, but economics also," Duterte declared. "America has lost."

I thought that this "not maybe social" was that he will maintain the tourism

I love this comment.

You know we have a running joke right now that US Visa thing is actually Duterte's Origin story. XD

But worse news is there is an expected up pick in Chinese Tourist from like 500k to 2M.

So we'll have the most undisciplined tourist in a very undisciplined country. Lol!

It's because he questioned the reason of Filipinos needing Visas to go to the US but Americans don't when coming to the Philippines and kinda implied he wants Visas for Americans too before coming here.

Doubt that's gonna happen because there are too many ex-pat children that are US citizen only. It's one of the reasons why Americans don't need Visas here.

He wants to revoke US Citizens from easy passage. Now, any US citizen can travel to Philippines without a visa and stay for 6 month. No more spontaneous trips to the Philippine to unload your wad. 😐

So how do explain this quote? Saying to China:

"I've realigned myself in your ideological flow," Duterte continued. "And maybe I will also go to Russia to talk to Putin and tell him that there are three of us against the world: China, Philippines and Russia. It's the only way."

Until World War III happens. US just lost a militarily vantage point.

Philippines already agreed to weapons testing by China. They can launch all the missiles they want into the Ocean. Philippines will just go right in and fetch to to recycle for scrap. 🙄 It's a win-win
