An old political gambit: accuse another of what you (the accuser) are really doing. The idea is to gain advantage for whatever perceived end. It can
boomerang though. Bigly! And mostly it does.

The former Boss still speaks like a Boss. “Walang coCaine video. Kung meron man lumabas na noon pa,” per former President Rodrigo Duterte.

Either the former President, one of our two
great presidents, knows considerably lesser than
our big-mouthed nonsensical megaphones or
there is no pulvoron video (the euphemism had ascended to the pinnacle of clichéed idiocy courtesy of our busier blaaaagers).

The two exist separately: pulvoron (which i like
veddy mucho) and video (which teem in social
media in galactic numbers). But not together, in
relationship to our elected incumbent leader.

Why expose yourselves to such embarrassing
conjectures leading to self-immolation.

Puzzles me no end.
Why?
