Trump invites Duterte to the White House

Very interesting.

Considering how Duterte is running the Philippines and even more so, how China and Russia being so friendly with the Philippine leader.

What's the motivation is my question.

Anyone?

Hello SR,

With Trump, it can be almost anything.

But...I can post some speculation...

Maybe he mis-spoke?

Maybe he wants to warm relations...seeing the Philippines were losing love for the U.S.?

Maybe he wants to get some ideas on how to rule?

Maybe its something to do with ego?

Maybe it has something to do with Russia and China?

One thing I will say, I do not agree with Duterte's way of ruling.

Maybe Johnny.
What Johnny said...

'With Trump, it could be almost anything.'

Yep.

Mic that's true.

Even then I can't wait to see how the two relate to each other.

Yep.
Phyl,

It might have something to do with Obama. Didn't Duterte tell Obama to go to hell or something like that?

It will be interesting with two large egos meeting!
GJ. I think it was more like ," Yo Mama!" Aa.
Should the US totally rebuild and modernize Subic Bay for the Philippines and also rebuild the corroding bridges and road ways there? If so, why? What is in it for the US? Allow Duterte to make his pitch. The other potential contractor is of course, China. Weird that the Philippines feels a few seldom used islands are too high a price.
Thanks guys I'm too busy at the moment.

I appreciate all your comments, get back later. wave
That's what I thought to alter perhaps they don't think the other side of being a criminal is that some are forced into it and some are just innocent victim I don't know.
Ken nice to see you. I'm not sure if that is the reason why Duterte is invited to the White House. Perhaps there's a reason why all of a sudden the interest of us to the Philippines become important. The truth is you can't say and Island value is measured from not being used in legality island is an island that belongs to a country becomes just as valuable has any Island useful or not.
Simple ! Trump is getting an education first hand of how to become a DICTATOR. studecar professor
