Correct. trump wishes he could have a country where be could order LE to kill. Philippines' Duterte sings love song for Trump: 'You are the light' ...“Ladies and gentlemen, I sang uninvited, upon the orders of the commander-in-chief of the United States,” Duterte said later, according to the ABS-CBN news channel.... More than 3,900 Filipinos have been killed in a war on drugs that Duterte declared when he took office last year. His government says the police act in self-defence, but critics say executions are taking place with no accountability. Duterte said last week he would tell the US president to “lay off” if he raised the issue of human rights when they met.... Trump, who has been criticised at home for neglecting rights issues in dealings abroad, praised Duterte in May for doing an “unbelievable job on the drug problem”. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/nov/13/you-are-the-light-philippines-duterte-sings-love-song-for-trump Duterte and Putin have both received regular praise from trump specifically for their leadership. Both have killed journalists and critics. "At a press conference in mid-February, Arturo Lascanas, a retired senior Davao police officer, detailed the existence of the “Davao Death Squad,” a vigilante group Duterte put together to get rid of political rivals and criminals, and admitted his own involvement as a ringleader. He said that Duterte personally paid him $20,000 for killing a broadcast journalist and commentator who openly criticized Duterte on his radio show. “Here ends my blind obedience and loyalty to one person, Mayor Rodrigo Roa Duterte who is now president of our country,” Lascanas said, at one point breaking down when he confessed that he had ordered the killing of his two own brothers, who were involved in the illegal drug trade. The report corroborated the earlier testimony of Edgar Matobato, a 57-year-old self-confessed triggerman, who told a Senate panel last September that he was a member of the Davao Death Squad. Several senators are now calling for a new probe based on Lascanas’s confession — a turnaround from his earlier testimony last October where he denied the existence of the gun-for-hire group and called it all “media hype.” https://www.vox.com/world/2017/2/28/14727614/rodrigo-duterte-philippines-drug-dealer-obama-trump-catholic-church Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
