The old guard needs to take a seat.
I campaigned for Kerry (cuz Bush II was the opponent) but he and Bill need to step aside.
Need to make room for fresh blood.
 
Not a fan of Kamala given her history (i know it I live in the Bay Area) but Republican candidates have gotten away with worse so nothing new to see here.
It sucks we went from Bernie and Warren to Biden and Kamala.
I know it's been a while since we all went to the Movies but this ticket feels like when you go to the movies on a Friday night and everything is sold out other than a movie you already seen or that stars Adam Sandler.

Ordinarily, a Party is going to invite all of its living former presidents, First Ladies and high profile cabinet members. So in that sense it makes sense to have Bill and Hillary Clinton but it’s a bad look to have Bill there with everything we know about him and Epstein.

Man I got tons of examples of corruption. Literally found out how I am entrenched in it as I get older.
- Buddy of mine hangs out with his son. The son is a big time drug dealer. Duterte literally got the small time dealers and lower class Filipinos killed so only the top druglords remain.
- My Godfather is special advisor to Duterte and bff's with Erap. When Duterte and Co went to China, the after party was nuts. High Class Escorts everywhere.
- Whenever I fly back, one of my buddies father is a crooked general during the Fidel Ramos era. One time, when we were backpacking SEA, he would literally say, if you guys get in trouble, don't hesitate to call if you need ANYTHING.

At a young age, you are really thought to man up and not take insults personally. Locker room talk is norm that I have to watch what I say because it may insult other people without me realizing it when I am out of my circle.

I can see first hand how being in power corrupts a person. You can be mother theresa or the dalai lama and I would not be surprised if you are corrupt if you have been in a position of power after a long time.

That's why these el Presidentes for life in President Xi and Putin, that's ultimilate corruption right there.

😂😂😂

At one my cousin's wedding, literally the Godfathers were
- owner of Dalmore Whiskey (Emperador)
- distributors who have exclusive rights to sell/distributors Nike and adidas apparel in the Philippines

My other cousin and I were like "if we kidnap these guys right now, we are set " lol

Duterte is something. That's why him and Trump get along from the start. Both egotistic, they are careful not to criticize each other directly. Just like what Trump said about Ghilsane Maxwell - "I wish her the best". It's a political savvy respond. You never hear Duterte directly insult Trump vice versa.

Keep in mind, with all what Duterte is doing, he is making some enemies too. That's why he needs to ensure the next President of the Philippines is pro-duterte so he doesnt go to jail. Also, as long as he is cool with China, his life is protected. Word is, Manila Mayor Isko Moreno is being groomed by Duterte to take the presidency.

All fax. His enemies don't have the power though, all lower congressmen and the media. He got the top senators under his whip too so no opposition on that front. Here's hoping he gets taken out by that vaccine or da 'Rona soon.
