In what may be a sign of things to come for the US, the Philippines just elected Rodrigo "The Punisher " Duterte as president, a guy that makes Trump look like a pussy.
The election results weren't official, but early results were so lopsided that the remaining candidates withdrew before the official announcement, so it's basically over.
If you watched "Last week tonight" you know the story, but if you haven't, here are some gems:
"I will be strict. I will be a dictator, no doubt it. But only against forces of evil -- criminality, drugs and corruption in government"
"If you are doing an illegal activity in my city, if you are a criminal or part of a syndicate that preys on the innocent people of the city, for as long as I am the mayor, you are a legitimate target of assassination."
He's not shitting. He's the Mayor of Davao, which has roving Death Squads enforcing justice. He said he would kill thousands of criminals without trial. He even admitted to killing several people himself, although he can't remember the exact number.
He's married twice but now single, he says he has several girlfriends. At a mass wedding, he offered himself as a "gift" to the wives only, because he's "not queer". That's right, he offered to fuck all the newlywed wives at their wedding ceremony.
When an Australian missionary was gang-raped (and murdered) in his city's prison, he said that "As mayor, he should have been first in line"
The more you research this guy, the more Trump looks like a wuss. It's not all doom and gloom though. Remember that Jiha-douche group that beheaded that Canadian? If there's a president that's willing to go balls out against terrorists, it's this guy. I can't wait to see how this plays out.
