DUTERTE
No reason to fear.
That was the reaction of political analyst Prof. Clarita Carlos after President Rodrigo Duterte threatened to declare martial law should the Supreme Court impede his anti-drug campaign.
In an interview with Radyo Inquirer 990 AM on Wednesday, Carlos said that Duterte’s pronouncement should be seen as an “exaggeration” on how he proves his points.
“Salita lang niya yan, masanay na tayo sa kaniya (That’s just how he talks, we should get used to him), he exaggerates to express his points,” said Carlos.
She said that to push for the septuagenarian President to change the way he delivers his statements would be futile, and that the public should just get used to the way Duterte speaks.
