Presidential candidate Rodrigo Duterte is showing he doesn’t give a damn if people will vote for him or not. People who run want to court votes. If Duterte doesn’t mind losing votes, then he should quit this early. He doesn’t have to wait for any adverse decision on the petition to disqualify him from running for president.

The former Davao mayor doesn’t care about the votes of human rights advocates. His admission (boast?) that he’s a womanizer doesn’t sit well with those pressing or equal rights for women who aren’t expected to vote for him. Now, he has shown disdain for the Pontiff of the Catholic Church even if majority of Filipinos are Catholics. The people should reciprocate by ignoring his bid on Election Day, assuming that he won’t be disqualified.
