Ah, the dazzling display of selective morality by former presidential spokesperson Harry Roque, who now recommends a drug test for President Bongbong Marcos to dispel rumors of illegal substance use.
One can’t help but marvel at Roque’s sudden concern for the sanctity of presidential sobriety. It’s a remarkable about-face from the days when he was in the Duterte camp, turning a blind eye to the president’s casual admission of marijuana use to stay awake during an ASEAN summit, not to mention allegations of his links to the drug trade.
The hypocrisy is almost poetic—Roque’s commitment to drug testing seemingly activated only when political alliances shifted. Perhaps Roque believes in the power of detoxifying political affiliations, where the results of a drug test can magically cleanse a leader’s image.
In this absurd theater of politics, the script is written in double standards, and the punchline is delivered with a straight face.
