MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Rodrigo Roa Duterte has not yet been in office for a full 100 days but already, the campaign for the 2022 Philippine presidential elections has  begun.

The leading candidate? Teddy Boy Locsin — journalist, former congressman and newly-appointed Philippine ambassador to the United Nations.

Locsin surely knows the winning formula to become president: be as foul-mouthed as Duterte. Or better.

Locsin first became controversial when he despised his own national language, Tagalog, as a useless language.  Everything went downhill (or is it uphill) from there.

In recent days, he has taken to his Twitter account to bitch, to curse, to threaten and to implore the Nazis. (Parental discretion advised.)

“If it worked for President Duterte, I’m sure it would, too, for me.  I found the perfect strategy to become the next president,” Locsin told The Adobo Chronicles.
