Why Bongbong Marcos appears to be 'winnable'

I HAVE differences with former senator Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. on fundamental policy issues. I see Marcos as merely continuing most of the policies of the Duterte administration, and I would have wanted him to define more his differences from a regime I have learned to dislike over the years, after briefly supporting it at the beginning.

I also honestly believe that he should apologize for the things that happened during his father's term. I have a problem with his seeming inability to admit a mistake, even the obvious ones. Speaking through his chief of staff, he is doubling down by stating that he has always been "forthright on his conferment of a special diploma in social studies by the distinguished university and has never misrepresented his Oxford education."
