Rodrigo Duterte has gained his fair share of critics and supporters since he was seated as the 16th president of the Philippines. The tough-talking “Iron Fist” from Davao City became a household name in international circles and throughout the media for his aggressive approach in fighting illegal drugs in the country.
He also sent shockwaves throughout the globe with his recent announcement of the Philippines “separating” from the United States, one of its longest allies. Because of this, many were scrambling for reasons why Duterte chose to forge stronger relationships with China and Russia while leaving the U.S. behind.
This caused critics to weigh in on Duterte’s decision and the impact it could make. But one American netizen took the opportunity to express his support for Duterte in his anti-drug campaign and also his recent actions pertaining to the Philippines’ relationship with the United States.
This particular American citizen said that the Philippines is taking a step forward in fighting drug issues in the country unlike in the U.S. while also taking a shot at President Barack Obama. His video went viral online and received praise from Filipinos and Duterte’s supporters.
