In a grand display of political theatrics, President Bongbong Marcos and former President Rodrigo Duterte have reportedly reached a gentleman’s agreement, ensuring a smooth transition of power and a convenient rewriting of history. 

Under this arrangement, Duterte graciously relinquishes the stage to Marcos, allowing him to wield the scepter of authority while Duterte basks in the glow of his past deeds, whether noble or nefarious.

With legal loopholes wider than the Pasig River, this agreement ensures that Duterte’s legacy remains untouched by the probing fingers of accountability, while Marcos holds the golden ticket to either dismantle or uphold his predecessor’s actions. 

In this twisted tango of power, moral ascendancy takes a backseat to political expediency, as the two gentlemen agree to simply stay out of each other’s well-trodden paths, leaving the Philippine populace to ponder the absurdity of it all. 

After all, what better way to govern than with a nod, a wink, and a gentleman’s agreement?
