DAN FERNANDEZ – The Santa Rosa City Representative reacted to the drug test challenge of Vice President Sara Duterte to the lawmakers.
In the previous days, Vice Pres. Sara Duterte has thrown intense tirades against Pres. Bongbong Marcos like claiming he does not know how to be a president. According to the VP, it is no longer her fault regarding the alleged inability of the chief executive to fulfill his job.
Vice Pres. Duterte also gave Pres. Marcos a “one” rating when asked to rate the performance of the chief executive from 1-10 with 10 as the highest. According to her, she has never heard him having a platform or talking about how to address the national problems.
In a previous interview, the Vice President claimed that she and the President did not really start as friends. According to her, her friend is really Senator Imee Marcos, the presidential sister. As to her conversations with the Chief Executive, she claimed that it’s about the campaign and work.
However, amid her claim that they are friends, Vice Pres. Sara Duterte said she once told Sen. Imee Marcos that she will exhume the remains of Marcos Sr. and throw it into the West Philippine Sea if the attacks against her don’t stop. Furthermore, Duterte also admitted that she had ill thoughts against the President.
The recent tirades of Vice Pres. Duterte against Pres. Marcos sparked a call from the lawmakers for Duterte to undergo a psychological assessment. Undeniably, countless people were disappointed by the remarks of the Vice President.
Vice Pres. Sara Duterte expressed her readiness to undergo a “neuropsychiatric examination”. However, she dared the aspirants of the House of Representatives to undergo a drug test as well. The Vice President claimed that the aspirants may be more unstable than her as per her belief.
Recently, Santa Rosa City Representative Dan Fernandez reacted to the challenge of Vice Pres. Sara Duterte. Based on a report on ABS-CBN News, the House Committee on Public Order and Safety Chairperson tagged it as a “diversionary tactic”.
Fernandez also claimed that former Pres. Rodrigo Roa Duterte is allegedly also good in diverting issues. According to him, the former President is allegedly diverting the pronouncements of the Vice President.
“Nililihis tayo. Magaling sila sa ganyan. Kahit nga si former President, magaling maglihis ng mga issue… ‘Yung mga pronouncement ng VP, nililihis niya eh… Ida-divert mo sa isang petty thing para ‘yun ang mapag-usapan,” Dan Fernandez said.
Based on the report, Dan Fernandez further tagged the dar of Vice Pres. Duterte as illogical and “obviously” a diversion. As for Manila 6th District Rep. Bienvenido Abante Jr., he accepts the challenge of the Vice President.
Amid the Palace and Pres. Marcos maintaining silence on the tirades, presidential son and llocos Norte Rep. Sandro Marcos expressed disdain on the remarks of Vice Pres. Duterte against his father and grandfather. He stressed that the Vice President has “crossed the line”.
