NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington Bureau) – In a rare public display of vulnerability and fear, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump apologized to the Filipino people for his comment linking their country to terrorism.
In a recent anti-immigration speech in Maine, Trump has lumped the Philippines among “terrorist nations” from where people should be denied entry to the United States.
Trump, in a statement released today, said that his campaign interns fed him the wrong information, leading him to believe that the entire Philippines was a Muslim country and that it was one of the Republics located in the Middle East.
Many believe that the apology was part of the Trump campaign’s damage control efforts to regain the millions of potential Filipino American votes the candidate may have lost as a result of his ‘terrorist’ comment.
Others, however, think that what prompted Trump to finally apologize was Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte’s challenge to engage the Republican candidate to a fistfight. That may be too much for Trump to handle.

Where is your source? There are no articles that support the same. No videos or recordings to prove he has apologized. Why write this?

What do you mean majority in the Philippines are Muslim..and if you think the president now is not doing anything about those ASG you are wrong because he ordered the AFP to eradicate them
You have to live in this country to know more about the Philippines before justifying that Filipinos are terrorist.. I live in the northern part of the Philippines and for your information majority here are Christians…
It is so wrong to judge a country/ actually your birth country when in fact you haven’t lived here for years.. Just too bad you are a Filipina and yet it is ok with you to be called “animal”…
Trump already apologized for that being fed the wrong information as he said.. I hope you will come back and visit other parts your own birth country too.. I hope someday you will realize that Filipinos shouldn’t be called “animals” and not to look down on Filipinos.. this country where you came from.. we are humans and we are not animals.. we are not “terrorists” either.. Christians here are not being outnumbered by Muslims…

U speak by ur tongue with no sense. FYI, Muslims are still a minority as far as population in the PH is concerned. At di lahat ng Muslim doon ay masama tulad ng iniisip at sinasabi mo, although may mga grupong bandido, ang mga pinoy ay hindi kasing sama ng sinasabi mo, Tulad ka rin ni Trump, kulang ka sa kaalaman, nagsasalita ng wlang alam, Pinay ka nga ba? Kung Pinay ka sagutin mo ito ng Tagalog ng mas maiintidihan ng makakabasa, at bka tama pa spelling mo kung Tagalog ok?

You attempted to speak smart of an idiot, that is just one of your mistakes. Your first mistake is most probably NOT listening in school.

I was just 6 yrs old when 9/11 happened, its a big news in our home, and i am very much aware that PH government send troops in middle east to support US in retaliating al-qaeda.

You’re right on! Liberal media and democrats like to twist things around for their own sick agenda. Many Filipinos support Trump not because he’s an ideal candidate, but because he’s more human than crooked, lying Hillary. I’ve been living here in the U.S for 38 years and I’ve seen how liberal media are so bias in their views and reporting. If a republican had done what Hillary had done, that person would had been in prison or executed already. There are many Filipinos who are not fooled by this party who will do everything and anything to win. I’ve watched Trump’s video 5-6 times to make sure I didn’t misunderstand what said re: when mention Philippines and even wrote down what he said, and here it is: A prominent illegal resident from the Philippines was convicted from plotting to join Al Qaeda and Taliban in order to kill many Americans as possible. And that’s exactly what he said. When he mentioned terrorist nations, he didn’t say Philippines specifically nor did he say that all Filipinos are terrorists. And if Filipinos think for a moment rather than just resharing other people’s post, there are terrorist groups in the southern part of the Philippines, one led by Abu Sayaf (not sure if this is how it’s spelled) who have killed Christians (missionaries) and foreigners especially Americans
and even fellow Filipinos who don’t agree with views or ways of thinking and beliefs. Wake up people!
