Being the highest elected official of the
land, criticisms from detractors and opponents are just part of the territory.
A seasoned politician moreso understands this
usual predicament.
President Rodrigo Roa Duterte may have reached
his top when he said out of exasperation that he had enough of his critics, so
much so he does not or will not give any attention as to how his detractors
attacks him.

“I am not the President of just one
entity or organization. I am a guy who was elected by the people,”
The President
said he will not be bothered anymore by his critics, because he knows they will
always be there to criticize every move he makes.
“Ang motto ko noong
na-mayor ako dito at Presidente ako, pareho. It’s almost parallel. Ang bunganga
ko, dala-dala ko rin. If they say that I am not a statesman, I never claimed to
be one. At wala mang subject na statesmanship doon sa law school. Obligation
and Contracts, Criminal Law,” Duterte said.
“If they do not like my
character, the more that I do not like them. So why should I follow them?” the
President added.
The Chief Executive is so
used to being criticized by his detractors that he has already made his own
game in dealing with them.
“There has to be a limit
in everything. And I choose my time to stop attacking. Alam mo kasi may mga
religious diyan pati itong mga Yellow, before the elections, they were already
crucifying me,” he added.
“After the elections,
they continued. In two months, nag-ano na sila ng revolutionary and they were
marching down the streets of Manila,” he said.
