Ah, the wonderful world of political polling, where numbers can be twisted and turned to suit one’s agenda faster than a pretzel in a carnival’s spin cycle. 

The recent double-digit plunge in Vice President Sara Duterte’s approval rating has sent shockwaves through the political landscape. Is the glass half empty or half full? Well, it depends on who you ask.

For the die-hard Duterte supporters, the glass is overflowing with Kool-Aid, as they rush to point out that she still holds the highest approval rating among top government officials. Never mind that this might be akin to being the tallest dwarf in a circus – it’s an achievement, right?

But let’s not forget the international context here. When you compare her to world leaders, Sara Duterte — and Bongbong Marcos — are apparently the dynamic duo of global popularity, second only to India’s Prime Minister Modi. It’s as if the world is playing a giant game of “Who Wants to Be a Despot?”

So, while some may see a glass half full, others might just see a glass half full of political absurdity. Cheers to the ever-creative world of spin!
