Is Politics Thicker Than Blood?

In the grand circus of Philippine politics, the proverb “politics is thicker than blood” takes center stage with Imee Marcos, the drama queen of familial alliances. Her rivalry with cousin Speaker Martin Romualdez resembles a telenovela plot, while her loyalty dance with VP Sara Duterte and public critiques of her own brother, President Bongbong Marcos, are Shakespearean twists. Filipinos, desperately trying to decipher the script, are left in the dark, stumbling through a labyrinth of political intrigue.

Is Imee pandering to anti-BBM forces for personal gain, or is this all an elaborate performance to bewilder the masses? The ambiguity only adds to the circus-like atmosphere, with politicians trading family bonds for political posturing. In this theatrical spectacle, the audience is left wondering if blood ties are mere props in a political pantomime, or if the characters are genuinely tangled in a web of loyalty and ambition. 

Welcome to the Philippines, where family dramas take a backseat to the enthralling spectacle of political theatrics.
