FACEBOOK CONNECTS FRIENDS AND FAMILY, BUT ALSO DIVIDES THEM

imageSAN FRANCISCO, California (The Adobo Chronicles) – Social media is supposed to connect you up with friends and family and create a loving and supportive network through the Internet.  But alas, Facebook also divides and separates friends and family, especially when it comes to politics.

Ever wondered who among your Facebook friends like Donald Trump, or Ted Cruz, or Bernie Sanders, or Hillary Clinton? Hell, even George Bush or Dick Cheney?

If you are Filipino, do you know who among your friends support which presidential candidate: Mar Roxas, Rodrigo Duterte, Grace Poe, Jejomar Binay or Miriam Defensor-Santiago?

Easy. Thanks to Facebook’s brilliant algorithms and database.

All you need to do is log on to your Facebook account, and in the search box, type in: “My Facebook friends who like (fill in the blanks).”  The results may or may not surprise you, but we know of netizens who have unfriended people because of what their search revealed.

Technology has its ups, but also downs. And politics can be divisive.

DONALD TRUMP BUYS TIME MAGAZINE FOR $2.5 BILLION

imageNEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles)  – After losing the title ‘Person of the Year’ to German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Republican Candidate Donald Trump bought Time magazine for a whopping $ 2.5 Billion. That’s almost a quarter of the billionaire’s net worth.

Trump was in the short list of contenders for the title, but magazine editors chose to name Merkel.

Trump’s first move after buying Time was to halt the printing of the magazine’s Person of the Year issue and replacing  the cover and  cover story, featuring himself of course( see photo).

He also announced that going forward, Time will be available free of charge at all Safeway, Target, Walmart and Walgreens stores. It will also be complimentary for those who stay at any of Trump’s hotels and resorts.

DONALD TRUMP’S STUNNING MAKEOVER!

NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles) – Money, they say, can buy anything.  Including elections.  And looks. That’s exactly what billionaire Donald Trump is doing in pursuit of his presidential ambition.

Unfazed by widespread outrage over his latest tirade against Muslims — calling for shutting them out of the United States — Trump has come to the realization that it is not just his politics that’s getting in the way of his road to the Oval Office, but also his looks.  He is sick and tired about nasty comments about his hair, among many other things.

Inspired by House Speaker Paul Ryan’s new bearded look, Trump summoned the best plastic surgeons he could muster and underwent a quick but stunning makeover.

Considering that oftentimes, looks and personality can spell success for an aspiring political candidate, Trump’s new persona could very well seal the deal and earn him the Republican nomination for president. Or even the U.S. presidency.

Then, he would be joining an elite group of good looking heads of state, like Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto, and the King of Bhutan.
