I am very saddened by this and angry as hell at the Philippine people for letting this happen.  Misguided anger or not, I don't give a damn.  Good bye my beloved Philippines.  Thank President Obama for fucking up another ally of the US.  You pussy POS. 

 

No, I don't feel any better.  WTF.....

That's pretty bad for the Philippines. Needing US support was probably one of the main things restraining Duterte from full on reign of terror dictatorship. He's probably sold out the Philippine people for Chinese cash to keep his regime going, and doubtless compromising their stake in the South China sea conflict.

Trading Human rights for power and control.  Also cash for loss of future bargaining positions?  Will the USA up the bet and help him more?  The problem is he is walking on the edge of that sharp sword.   A USA $backed$ COUP?  Or ... how about a China $backed$ COUP?
